Thanks Craig for locating this dataset. Potentially solves all our 
problems. Yes, can add only one district at a time to the Shopping Cart, 
but can in theory keep going back and adding more items to the Cart (I did 
2 at a time). Process for checking out and creating downloads involves many 
clicks... bit idiotic. But some substantive limitations after I downloaded 
and checked Dindori in MP:

1. Village boundaries do match latest village shapes from revenue layers, 
BUT they are east-shifted by 200m (they must have goofed the datum)
2. Polygons don't have any census ID, so linking to other data will require 
adding those manually (!!) or figuring out what numbering system SOI has 
used. Any thoughts on that?
3. I tried Andhra Pradesh two districts Vizag and Srikakulam, and it says 
"data not available yet". So the dataset is still in the making. Not sure 
what is available and what is not, overall.
