Object under uniform circular motion it has to travel at a constant speed by changing it's direction continuously . Changing the direction with constant speed objects must accelerated (from second law of Newton).
Inorder to be in uniform circular motion the force must be balanced by some pseudo force called as centripetal force which acts opposite tot the force by accelerated object. The centripetal force must be towards the center of the circle. These two forces are balanced and kept the object in uniform motion in the circle. Without centripetal force object never be in circular motion. This is the Newton's third law of motion.
