One more update here..

Wikidata syncing with LGD is done till subdistrict level.

You can query them at https://w.wiki/8sWm

Also, I tried to add all alternate names I could find as aliases in
wikidata.

Automating this syncing and updating periodically is something I might take
up at a future date.

But I suspect manual intervention and review is going to be required for
this.

If someone wants to have a go at it, I will try to provide support.
