Scientific paper

ON 231 (W Com) was one of the first radio sources classified as a BL Lac. It shows considerable variation in almost all energy regimes. We monitored it for linear Optical Polarization using 1.2m Telescope at Mt Abu IR Observatory, India, mounted with two-channel PRL Photo-Polarimeter. W Com showed interesting behavior in optical polarization during April 14-16, 2010. On April 14, linear polarization slowly increased from 7.4(+/-0.7)% to 9.7% during UT 19.5 to 21.0 and then dropped sharply to about 5.8% within half an hour.
