We have started a programme with GMRT to survey the Cygnus OB2 region at 325 and 610 MHz. Cygnus OB2 region is rich with wide range of sources across the EM spectrum such as protostars, young massive stars, X-ray sources, unidentified VHE sources, colliding wind binaries, shells, bubbles shocks. Frequencies below 1 GHz is chosen to trace non-thermal emission and GMRT offers good resolution and sensitivity at these frequencies
