 On me. :)

 Just downloaded the data and went through it. Realize that these are the
old parliamentary constituencies (pre delimitation in 2007-08). That is one
possible reason this data might have been taken off the EC website.

So yes, I promise beer to anyone who gets me shapefiles of new (post
delimitation) parliamentary and assembly constituencies (at least for
Karnataka).

Some other datasets: http://www.glidingsquirrel.in/RNandini/Datathon.html

 The funny thing is that the ECI used to have it on their website. Dunno
 why they took it down.

 MP Shapes can be derived from MLA shapes if we have data of which assembly
 constituencies form which parliamentary constituencies, right?

Are they interlocking like that?

 That's awesome. Lets work together on this. The source code is open*. I
 am trying add Twitter Photo feature as a way to upload the postbox
 pictures. It should be done by this week.

 The code project is now called Kannu now. (Kannu == eyes). I am trying
 to make it generic, so that it could be used for any crowd sourced project.
 Like say mapping public taps or toilets using Instagram or twitter.
