1) Most of the lifting for the scraping part is done. Shapefile equivalents are here - https://github.com/ramSeraph/indian_admin_boundaries
2) This is the actual heavy lifting.. Do publish if you manage to create a process. Also.. depends on why you want to use the data for, I would suggest looking at https://devdatalab.org/shrug where the heavy lifting till 2011 was handled. Some of the tools ( https://github.com/paulnov/masala-merge ) created by those folks might also be useful for cleaning elsewhere as well.
