We present imaging and photometric studies of the radio galaxy NGC 1316(Fornax~A) using high spatial resolution near-ultraviolet (NUV) andfar-ultraviolet (FUV) imaging telescopes of the first Indian multi-wavelengthspace observatory {\it AstroSat}. The residual maps of UV emission obtainedfrom the subtraction of smooth models witness peculiar features within thecentral few kpc (1-2 kpc) region. The spatial correspondence between the radioemission maps and FUV imaging study reveal that the UV emitting sources aredisplaced away from the centre by the AGN outburst (radio jet). The presence ofrims and clumpy structures in the outskirt of this galaxy delineate that thegalaxy has acquired a large fraction of gas through merger-like events and isstill in the process of settling. The estimates of the star formation rates(SFR) using FUV and NUV luminosities are found to be 0.15 M$_\odot$yr$^{-1}$and 0.36 M$_\odot$yr$^{-1}$, respectively, and provide the lower limit due tothe screen effect. The estimated lower rates of SFR in this galaxy probablyrepresent its quenching due to the AGN driven outflows emanating from thecentral engine of NGC 1316.
