I am an indian lived in Sweden last year for about 80 days on a student visa. Due to certain family circumstances, i had to drop my studies and return back to india. Now that I am applying for a work visa to Canada and worried about my last year travel history. My question is do i have to provide travel history for work visa? If yes, will it create any sort of issue obtaining my work visa since I haven't completed my studies?

Yes you have to provide all the travel trips. Make sure you declare everything even though not completed. Not sure if leaving the study incomplete will create a problem or not but hiding facts will surely do. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply. However, I am seriously concerned about questions that they might ask for my studies though. Anybody having any similar experience? On what grounds they can refuse my visa if I mention everything correctly as long as i am not going to Canada for studies but for work?

Whether you will be unable to remain in Canada and will return to India may be considered. The main things that will be considered is whether you have strong ties to India, whether you have the funds to come to Canada and be able to survive while you start work and the biggest things will be whether the job makes sense based on your work and education history. Would personally address why you were unable to finish your studies in Sweden and had to return to India and if needed address why the situation won’t happen again.
