A hoarding at the Mohammad V University in Moroccan capital Rabat, where vice-president Hamid Ansari was scheduled to address on Wednesday, depicted a map of India which showed Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh as its parts.
The hoarding was placed at the entrance of the venue.
The college authorities pasted a white tape over the erroneous map after the Indian officials intervened.
The authorities said that it was an error on the part of the college. They, however, refused to be quoted.
