Indian Cities JSON

a json file containing 1220 indian cities and their respective states

After hundreds of unsuccessful searches for a rails gem to add the cities and states select option which could work the way I wanted it to, I gave up. Then, I began searching for a .json from which I could directly fetch the information and make it work, there too, I failed, I couldn't find the "perfect" file.

So, I downloaded the largest Excel sheet of cities I could find, removed every column I didn't need and converted it to a JSON.

Here is a small snippet :)

[
    {
        "id": "1",
        "name": "Mumbai",
        "state": "Maharashtra"
    },
    {
        "id": "2",
        "name": "Delhi",
        "state": "Delhi"
    },
    {
        "id": "3",
        "name": "Bengaluru",
        "state": "Karnataka"
    }
]

and if you don't see your city here, create a pull request and add it to this list.

How to get state details in detailed json file?

A city in the detailed JSON file is represented as below:

"adarki buzurg": {
        "city": "adarki buzurg",
        "accentcity": "Adarki Buzurg",
        "region": "16",
        "population": null,
        "latitude": "17.916667",
        "longitude": "74.216667"
    },

How do I get the name of the city's region or state through it's ID?
Is there a list of regions you maintain with their respective IDs to associate the cities?

Duplicate Cities

Many cities exist twice. Causing a pretty serious problem in React because I'm using the city name as the key.
