The event is expected to attract students, professionals, entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers and members of the general public from across the region.
This version reads more like a mainstream newspaper/government-event press release and places the spotlight on Viksit Bharat and the exhibition, rather than on the press conference itself. (JKNS)
