<p>There are few properties of each political boundaries:
</p>
<ol><li> Elected Person
</li><li> Election Year
</li><li> ECI AC Number (ref number)<br></li><li> ECI PC Number
(ref number)</li><li> ECI Ward Number
(ref number)</li></ol>
<p>We need to support at least these in the attributes of political
boundaries to support extensions which can later take data from other
source or database. There are many other properties but these are the
minimum.</p>
<h3> <span> Ward boundary </span></h3>
<p>Ward members are also elected. Though they dont seem to be in the political boundary. Please suggest. </p><p><br></p><p>Also, I have to checked other boundaries but even those should support some attributes that help identify that region using govt. assigned ref number for extensions.<br>

I have updated the wiki with the added details you mentioned: <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:Boundaries" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:Boundaries</a></div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Please check if anything is missing and update the page as necessary. This is probably the most comprehensive documentation for boundary mapping for any country. If the scheme can accommodate India, it can probably cover any other country too.<br>

Shall I add my ideas on these boundaries? <br>
<div><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br>In my vision, The following are the most prominent administrative divisions in India:<br>
<br>First set - Administrative boundaries<br><br> 1. Territorial waters (Exclusive Economic Zone) (as per United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea)<br></div><div> 2. Zones (Interstate council)<br></div><div>
3. States and Union Territories (Governer and Chief Minister)<br>
</div><div> 4. Revenue Districts (District Collector)<br></div><div> 5. Revenue Divisions (Revenue Divisional Officer)<br></div><div> 6. Taluks / Tehsils (Tahsildar)<br></div><div> 7. Revenue Villages (Village officer)<br>
</div><div> 8. Survey / Re-survey /Un-survey - field measurement plots and sub divisions<br></div><div><br>Second Set - Legislative boundaries<br><br></div><div> 1. Lok Sabha (Parliament) Constituency [Lok Sabha
- MP]<br> 2. Legislative Assembly (Vidhan Sabha) Constituency [States and Union Territories - MLA]</div><div><br></div><div>Third Set - Local Self Government<br><br></div><div> 1. Rural<br> a. District (Zilla) Panchayat (President and Secretary)<br>
</div><div> i Divisions (Member) <br></div><div> b. Development Blocks (Block/Mandal Panchayat) (President and Block Development Officer/Secretary)<br></div><div> i Divisions (Member)<br></div>
<div> c. Grama (Village) Panchayat ( Rural Local Authority) (President/Sarpanch and Secretary)<br></div><div> i Wards (Member)<br></div><div><br></div><div> 2. Urban<br></div><div> a. Municipality / Municipal Corporation / Nagar Panchayat (Urban Local Authority) and Metropolitan Region (Mayor and Secretary)<br>
</div><div> i. Zones<br></div><div> ii. Wards (Councillor)<br></div><div> <br> 3. Cantonment area (Officer in Command)<br></div><div> (Don't know it's divisions :( (Military area Local Authority)<br>
</div><div><br>Fourth Set - Courts and Police<br></div><div> 1. Jurisdiction of various courts<br><div> 2. Police Districts<br> 3. Police Circles<br> 3. Jurisdiction of Police Stations <br></div><br>Fifth Set - Miscellaneous<br>
</div> 1. Special Economic Zones<br><div> 2. Coastal Regulation Zone<br></div><div> 3. Ecologically Sensitive Areas<br><br></div><div>I think the above listed are the important sets, regarding the administrative divisions of India. Besides these, almost all the government departments of various tiers of administration, have their own internal administrative boundaries.<br>
