What position did India secure at the 48th WorldSkills Competition held in Shanghai?
- A.6th
- B.10th
- C.13th
- D.20th
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 10th. Team India ended the 48th WorldSkills Competition in Shanghai in tenth position, with six Silver Medals and twenty Medal for Excellence to its name. Option A, sixth, mixes up the rank with the number of silver medals India won, which was six. Option C, thirteenth, was India's placing at the previous edition of the competition, WorldSkills Lyon in 2024, where the country collected four bronze medals and twelve Medal for Excellence; Shanghai therefore represents a gain of three places over that showing. Option D, twentieth, echoes the count of Medal for Excellence India earned in Shanghai rather than any ranking. Aspirants should link the rank, the medal colour and the edition together: tenth place, six silvers, twenty Medal for Excellence, at the forty-eighth edition of the competition.
