Our college faculty and students approached needy and distributed water packets and food packets.</span> <span style="font-size:larger;">UCEN JNTUK took a bright step when Government of India banned 500 and 1000 rupee notes. Faculty and students of UCEN organised awareness campaigns in local villages and bases educated people on cashless transactions through online banking.</span> <span style="font-size:larger;"A neutralization tank>&nbsp;Recently when Kerala faced the most devastating floods in the history of the state, our college students campaigned in Narasaraopet and created awareness among people to donate to CM Relief Fund of Kerala along with crowd funding through NSS with motto of ''“Giving is living”''</span> <span style="font-size:larger;">Students helped village people to know that “cleanliness is equal to godliness”.
