One such notable TDP contribution is the establishment of Centurion University of Technology and Management in Vizianagaram district.

Centurion University of Technology and Management stands as a testament to its commitment to providing quality education in underserved areas. The institution’s focus on technology and management education has been instrumental in equipping students with the skills needed to navigate a rapidly evolving global landscape. The TDP agenda of the establishment of such private educational institutions reflects a broader trend of bridging educational gaps and promoting inclusivity.
