Ok, so I converted the .shp file to .kml. Fusion Tables refused to parse
the file. So then I uploaded the ,kml file on Google Drive. When I open it
on Google Maps from there, the application says it encountered problem with
some data, and doesn't show anything on the map.
Please help!

Wow, that whole exchange was so smooth and streamlined. Somebody should do
a couple of interviews and write a short piece on how Datameet has emerged
as the most amazing single window solution for dataneeds. :)

Best thing to do is to open the shape files in QGIs.. Simplify geometries a
bit and then convert to kml. The datameet version is very good and
therefore very bulky and doesn't translate too well for web purposes.

Ravi,
It generates a KML of 35MB which is huge for the web apps.
Google maps/API has limitation wrt to the size of KML

But it works on leaftlet using

Ravi, alternatively you might want to try mapbox.com tilemill /
tilestream to render the files once, and then serve tiles only...
