Hello, I was also looking into the same problem, the number districts have increased to 932 in NFHS 5 from 640 in NFHS 4. Just to get things clear, Are you suggesting that I drop the new districts and the old district?

Another thing that is of concern, is that suppose there's district_A, which was split into two parts and now there a new district called district-B and the another part of old district which carried on the name as district-A. Would it be possible to find some resource, using which I can find new districts and figure out the district they split from? Thank you.
