Administrative divisions of India as of July 2000

Description

The available shapefile represents the administrative divisions of Inia. The shapefile divides India into 27 states and seven union territories. The states and union territories are subdivided into 560 districts. These, in turn, have 2101 subdivisions that are generically called sub-districts, but that have different statuses by state. We received the shapefile from the French Institute of Pondicherry (IFP). The original source of the shapefile remains unknow but it seem it is from he government. We used the shapefile as the best available information to georeferrence the samples of the Herbarium of the French Institute of Pondicherry (IFP).
