locality is the way i could properly render blocks and sectors right now in
OSM india. please suggest if there is a better/proper way achieving the same
render result.

 - you can spot sectors (govt sold residential area) as well as private
societies (private sold resi are).

now, you can see blocks to sectors too like block A,B,C or Phase 1,2 or Part
1 or Part 2 which are within the same sector. (but there are no known naming
rules so there are always exceptions)
Only sometimes, street names are only connecting sectors. but never are
there street names within a sector.
