We have initiated an observational campaign on some bright Be stars in order to investigate the rapid variability in emission lines using a Fabry-Perot spectrometer(λ/δλ = 104; FSR = 21.3Å) at the Nasmyth focus of the 1.22 m JRO telescope at Hyderabad, India. The PMT dark counts were 1 – 2sec-1. Here we report our first observations on four stars.
