In your controller initialize class obj:
LocalPathToUNCPathConversion obj = new LocalPathToUNCPathConversion();
string localPath = "filename"; //give locally mapped network drive file path
string UNCFilePath = obj.GetUniversalName(localPath);
write logic in a separate class file named as LocalPathToUNCPathConversion.cs
