In South Africa, ward boundaries fall under the Demarcation Board, so the shapefiles are available on their website. Does India not have a similar body in charge of the ward boundaries?– Cindy JayakumarCommented Aug 17, 2016 at 12:23

If this is likely to be open data then asking at the Open Data Stack Exchange is recommended.– PolyGeo ♦Commented Jul 14, 2017 at 5:33

You could try DIVA-GIS where you can select India as Country and Administrative areas as Subject. You should receive three polygon shapefiles.
Load the "IND_adm3.shp" shapefile into your GIS software, open the Attribute Table and in the NAME_3
field, search for 'Jhansi'.
In QGIS, you can write an expression like:
"NAME_3" LIKE 'Jhansi'
There should only be one feature:
Jhansi also exists in the NAME_2
field where four features exist but I believe those show the Jhansi district and not the city.
