Blazar S5 0716+714 (PKS 0716+71) is highly variable at short and long term timescales in 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 Polarimeter. It was found to have high and variable polarization during Dec 12-13, 2009. The source has been reported to be undergoing flaring activity at sub-mm (ATEL #2342) and a multifrequency campaign is already on.
