Does spoofing the browser's user-agent allow one to use the site? or has
the site indulged in more hardcore measures to keep the people (non-IE
users) out?

As it is, any such browser-specific 'lock-in' is a direct violation of
clause 7.6 (b) of 'Guidelines for Indian Government Websites' [1]

"It is a MUST that Indian Government websites are tested for multiple
browsers and versions of browser, operating systems, connection speeds, and
screen resolution to ensure access by all"

just my 2p :)
