Indian vice president arrives in Morocco for visit

Xinhua, May 31, 2016 Adjust font size:

India's Vice President Mohammad Hamid Ansari arrived late on Monday in Rabat for an official three-day visit to Morocco in a bid to bolster bilateral ties.

Ansari is expected to meet key Moroccan officials, including Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane. Both leaders will launch the India-Morocco Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

In October 2015, King of Morocco Mohammed VI visited India where he participated at the India-Africa Summit.

Morocco is Ansari's first leg in his tour in North Africa. He will visit Tunisia on June 2 and 3. Enditem
