Nihkil, I beg to differ with you on the geospatial aspect and the value of the datasets. They have only been publishing aggregated numbers for data that could be a little more granular. Like for example MeeSeva Transactions/Electricity connections to households etc.. The best example is the Police Stations dataset which is an aggregate number of police stations in a district which is of zero value in my opinion. The baseman of the state along with new district boundaries is not yet publicly available in machine readable formats.
I have been pushing them to publish granular data with little luck.
