Hey Anand,

I have done quite a bit of work on this. One problem is, there are two
datasets - one cleaned up, one preliminary:

http://www.eci-polldaymonitoring.nic.in/psl/default.aspx
http://www.eci-polldaymonitoring.nic.in/psleci/default.aspx

For the preliminary data for UP, have a look at my website here:
http://data.raphael-susewind.de/content/gis-shapefiles

For all-India data, I have the preliminary raw point data, but can't
make up my mind whether I should clean it up and make it available now,
or hope that the EC themselves will clean it up further in the current
run-up to the general elections, in which case I could save myself the
trouble and just wait a few months longer.

Also, I am wary of the polling booth ID codes at the moment; for UP, for
instance, they changed slightly with the current roll revision - booth
IDs from 2011-13 are not necessarily the same as those in 2014.
Currently, my website operates with 2011-13 IDs, and I intend to wait a
little longer until I upgrade to 2014 IDs...

And nope, there are no other places where this data is available to my
knowledge (unless you know somebody deep inside the NIC or EC),

Best,
Raphael
