On April 26, a delegation of Hanoi City leaders joined an incense offering service to commemorate Tran Phu (1904 – 1931), the first General Secretary of the Vietnamese Communist Party, at the relic house No. 90, Tho Nhuom Street in Hanoi, where Tran Phu penned the Party political platform.
The function was held to celebrate the 120th birth anniversary of comrade Tran Phu.
At the event, the delegation, led by Dinh Tien Dung, Politburo member and Secretary of the Hanoi municipal Party Committee, paid tribute to comrade Tran Phu and pledged to work harder to successfully realise the Resolution of the 17th Hanoi Party Congress and make further contributions to the development of the capital city.
Tran Phu was born on May 1, 1904, in Tuy An District, Phu Yen Province, and his hometown was Tung Anh Commune, Duc Tho District, Ha Tinh Province.
He was elected as the first General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam in 1930 when he was 26 years old. He made the first draft of the Party political thesis in 1930. He was arrested on April 18, 1931, and died on September 6 of the same year.
Although his revolutionary life was short, Tran Phu fulfilled numerous works for the Vietnamese Party and people, in which the drafted political platform outlined the path for the Vietnamese revolution to success.
