He urged efforts to promote the well-rounded development and common prosperity of the disabled, saying that special attention should be given to the disabled individuals in the pursuit of Chinese modernization.

Zhang Haidi, chairwoman of the China Disabled Persons' Federation, delivered a work report at the congress on Monday on behalf of the federation's seventh presidium.

China has around 85 million people with disabilities. Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the country has made continuous efforts in promoting the cause of people with disabilities, such as guaranteeing their basic livelihoods, rehabilitation, education and employment, as well as promoting the construction of barrier-free environments.

The nation's first law on a barrier-free living environment took effect earlier this month, and various regions and departments are making every effort to promote the high-quality development of a barrier-free environment.
