Abstract : The upgraded GMRT (uGMRT) with its increased sensitivity due to the combination of wider bandwidths and improved technology receivers, is expected to be an excellent tool for conducting more sensitive pulsar surveys, particularly in Band-3 (250 to 500 MHz) and Band-4 (550 to 750 MHz). We describe here a pilot survey, which was initiated at Band-3 (using 200MHz bandwidth) covering a sky area of 315 square-deg (9◦
