IIT Madras mirrors Ubuntu and Fedora. A couple of years ago IIT Madras mirror was available in Ubuntu repository list. IIT Madras is doing a good job in this regard. Other central and state government funded institutions must come up with such an infrastructure. I studied in Anna university chennai a state government funded institution. There even though they use Linux there is no sufficient funding for providing a mirror. Hope this changes.
