Karthik, I have saved the files to my dropbox folder<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/t7d3sy9sage8hoz/gLDBsxZIHW>and am sharing this with anyone who wishes to do research conditional on proper attribution. There are three files corresponding to Census years- 1991, 2001 & 2011. While those for '01 and '11 are complete (which means data is available at each of the following geographical unit: state, district, sub-district(taluka/tehsil) and village), the one for 1991 currently covers only the state and district level data. Information at village level for Census 1991 is awfully messy and needs more cleanup before I can use/distribute it. Please let me know if you make any improvements (combining data across Census years, for instance) and alert me in case you find errors. Hope this helps.
