We present the H$\alpha$ observations from ARIES, Nainital of a compact and impulsive solar flare occurred on March 10, 2001 and associated with a CME. We have also analysed HXT, SXT/Yohkoh observations as well as radio observations from Nobeyama Radio Observatory to derive the energetics and dynamics of this impulsive flare. We co-align the H$\alpha$, SXR, HXR, MW and magnetogram images within the instrumental spatial resolution limit. We detect a single HXR source in this flare, which is found spatially associated with one of the H$\alpha$ bright kernel. The unusual feature of HXR and H$\alpha$ sources, observed for the first time, is the rotation during the impulsive phase in clockwise direction. We propose that the rotation may be due to asymmetric progress of the magnetic reconnection site or may be due to the change of peak point of the electric field. In MW emission we found two sources, one is main source which is at the main flare site and another is remote source located in South-West direction. It appears that the remote source is formed by the impact of accelerated energetic electrons from the main flare site. From the spatial co-relation of multi-wavelength images of th
