So they clearly have information about the polling centers and list of polling stations in each polling center, but this information is not available anywhere for public consumption. Couple of the things listed above are available in various places, esp. the PDF voter lists. It would be very helpful and save a lot of time if this information is available in a machine readable format. Anand -- Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.
