Speaking of the shapefiles, there is an existing database of shapefiles available with BISAG <http://www.bisag.gujarat.gov.in/>. I had inquired a long time ago and they were not ready to give the shapefiles. I am trying the other alternative of getting the data from the state police department's GIS cell. It will probably take me a week or two to get the data. Will keep you all posted.
