Hi Avinash, First of all thank you for providing the data.
I checked with the MCD source and I have made screenshots for the Dellopura Ward here (http://imgur.com/a/5ycYw). The first image is the offiical source, the second and third images are the two different entries in the shapefile which have the same name and features except the geometry. Would you have an idea how to handle this? Thanks.
