Going beyond the confines of the academic campus, over 100 students from IIT Kanpur and MBA students of STEP HBTI stepped out of the campus on their cycles to create health awareness in the nearby Maksoodabad village on April 29, 2023. During this initiative, carried out under the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan, students went house to house in the village, enquiring about the health ailments of the villagers and filling out a health survey form. Along with the IITians, ASHA and ANM workers of CHC Kalyanpur helped in making Ayushman cards, and the CSC team was around to help with the registration of other cards. The health camp was inaugurated by Sarpanch Narendra Kumar, Prof. Sandeep Sangal and Sudhanshu Shekhar Singh, along with Prof CK Tiwari and Yogesh Puri of STEP HBTI.
