Google Launches Loksabha Election Website

Today Google announced a new website for 2009 Indian general elections.

This website has been created with the help of Hindustan time and some other NGOs and can be found here - http://www.google.co.in/intl/en/landing/loksabha2009/ It is an excellent feature to search voters name in the voter list but it seems that the website is still under development.
