In1966, the Cultural Revolution stopped all secondary classes as they wanted students to criticise and fight their teachers.

Student militants ransacked Xi Jinping’s family home and one of his sisters ended up committing suicide. His mother was also forced to publicly denounce his father, as his father was paraded before a crowd as an enemy of the revolution. His father was imprisoned in 1968 and as his father was not present to protect him, he was sent to work in Liangjiahe Village.

Xi Jinping was made to work as the party secretary of Liangjiahe, where he lived in a cave house. After a few months, he ran away to Beijing as he could not stand the rural life. Xi Jinping managed to join the Communist Youth League of China in 1971 by befriending a local official.
