Hi,

I'm working with a student who wants the ward boundaries for as many
cities as she can get from the 1991 and 2001 India Census (she already
has the data, just not the boundaries). We have data for a few cities
and I've been in touch with some vendors but this GIS data is really
pricey. The student also said she'd be willing to look at paper maps of
these boundaries and she actually already contacted the census
department in India, but no one seemed to know anything about print
maps, even though they are listed on their website.

Does anyone have suggestions for sources for this data? I'm looking into
both print and electronic.

Thanks,

Jennie
