Abstract: Quasars (of type I) are the luminous analogs of type I Seyfert galaxies.  
Within the framework of unified models of active galaxies, the population of quasars 
of type II recently discovered with Sloan Digital Sky Survey are the luminous analogs 
of type II Seyfert galaxies.  In quasars (of type I) we are looking down the jet 
(also called as the \"pole-on\" view), whereas in quasars of type II we are viewing
 the jet broadside (also called as the \"edge-on\" view).  Since, our knowledge and 
understanding of the radio properties of these type II quasars is very limited, we 
will present our, first results from recently scheduled observations, preliminary 
observational radio properties of these sources and test the predictions of 
unification scheme models.  We will also compare the radio properties of 
type I and II quasars with the radio properties of Seyfert (radio-quiet) and 
radio (radio-loud) galaxies, thereby compare the radio jets of \"other\" AGNs 
with the radio jets of type II quasars.
