The very large (100-1000) mass-to-light ratio applicable to the ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) implies a high concentration of dark matter, thus rendering them ideal theatres for indirect signatures of dark matter. In this paper, we consider 14 re cently discovered UFDs and study the electromagnetic radiation emanating from them over a wide range, from gamma ray down to radio frequencies. We analyze the Fermi-LAT data on high energy gamma rays and radio fluxes at the GMRT and VLA to obtain upper limits on annihilation cross section $langlesigma vrangle$ in a model independent way. We further discuss the sensitivity of the Square Kilometer Array radio telescope in probing the synchrotron radiation from the aforementioned UFDs. We also investigate the dependences of the said upper limits on the uncertainties in the determination of various astrophysical parameters.
