Dear all, I just updated my GitHub repo on elecoral data with the various details on the electoral roll frontpages of abovementioned states (Gujarat to be added later this week). This is basically (in vernacular script) the district, taluk, village, ward, address, name, pincode, etc of each booth. The data are in the respective *id tables of my dataset, so for Karnataka it would be in the karid table. Hope this is useful:
https://github.com/raphael-susewind/india-religion-politics This is based on the 2014 rolls, used during the last general election. Feel free to experiment with it and please alert me to any mistakes - its a semi-automated process, so mistakes can always happen. Incidently, does anybody know of a source that links Census ID codes to village names in vernacular script? The lgov directory only maps them to latin script. Ultimately, the goal is of course to link electoral and census data together at finer levels - something many here have been interested in over the years...
