Constituency boundaries are shown differently in multiple sources. The Datameet dataset is good for Rural constituencies, but not accurate in case of Urban areas. I had inquired for those datasets to MapMyIndia but the cost they quoted was exorbitant. and accuracy was not too good either. Maharashtra boundaries are shown here in MSRAC portal(Choose "Electoral" in base layer and zoom in) http://mrsac.maharashtra.gov.in/geoportal/ If someone is successful in extracting the shapefiles from this, Please let me know. If anyone wants to collaborate on data viasualization project on Indian Elections, Feel free to connect. - Rigved Shenai 9594747357
