What happened
- The event will run from September 22 to 27 in Shanghai.
- India plans to compete in 63 of 64 skills with nearly 70 competitors.
- New categories include unmanned aerial systems, aircraft maintenance, software testing, digital interactive media design and intelligent security technology.
