We have mapped the head-tail radio galaxy, 3C 129 at 240 and 610 MHz using the GMRT and studied the detailed morphology and spectral index variations in this object. This is the first attempt to observe a sample of head-tail sources at low…
We present a new wide-field map of the radio galaxy 3C 129 and its companion galaxy 3C 129.1 at lambda=90 cm. We see a distinct steep-spectrum feature near the head of 3C 129, extending in a direction perpendicular to the radio tails. We…

Radio galaxies with a projected linear size > 1 Mpc are classified as giant radio sources. According to the current interpretation these are old sources which have evolved in a low-density ambient medium. Since radiative losses are…
We report multi-frequency observations of large radio galaxies 3C 35 and 3C 284. The low-frequency observations were done with Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope starting from $\sim150$ MHz, and the high-frequency observations were done with…

We present a new study of the 1.7 Mpc KAT-7-discovered giant radio galaxy, J0133$-$1302, which was carried out using GMRT data at 323 and 608 MHz. This source is located at RA $01^h33^m13^s$ and Dec $-13^{\circ}03^\prime00^{\prime\prime}$…
Radio galaxies classified as X-shaped/winged, are characterised by two pairs of extended and misaligned lobes, which suggest a rapid realignment of the jet axis, for which a potential cause is still under debate. Here we analyse the complex…
