Gujarat/Places
This page is a proposal and has not been accepted. Discussions can be found on the Project India mailing list[1][2]
The reference document for classifying Gujarat places is the Indian Census 2011 MDDS Geographical code directory[3][4] and 2011 Census metadata doc[5]. The osm tag names closely match the areas under the census classification, but may not be exact for classification of suburbs or localities.
For name=*, try to use the exact names in the MDDS directory for consistency, any other name can be in name:en=* or alt_name=*
