dc.description.abstract	An Imaging Polarimeter has been fabricated for use with liquid- N2 cooled CCD camera and is designed to suit 104-cm Sampurnanand telescope with an f/13 focus at Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Naini Tal. The instrument measures the linear polarisation in broad B, V and R band and has a field of view ~ 20' x 20'. We are presenting here some observations regarding the polarisation of some polarised as well as unpolarised stars with a view to show the performance of our polarimeter.	en
