Kakinada: Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Kakinada (JNTUK) Vice-Chancellor KVSG Muralikrishna unfurled the flags of 194 countries recognized by the United Nations at the university on Wednesday. The initiative titled “Walk with Nations” aims to unite global diversity.
Alumnus Badam Sundara Rao took the initiative for the UNO flag icon inspired by Geneva, Switzerland. Muralikrishna said JNTUK is the sixth university globally after Geneva, New York, Seoul, Shanghai and Santo Domingo to install these prestigious flags.
Each flag has a QR code, which details the country’s population, currency, and other information. Muralikrishna said that the establishment will become a tourist spot in the future and visitors and students will be able to take selfies with the flag.
Rector of the university KV Ramana, OSD d. Koteswara Rao and former Vice-Chancellors were present.
