      Nitin–The British Library tightly controls digital images of their maps, and getting digital copies of these maps from them is unlikely. There are several other websites with Survey of India maps you could search to see if they have what you want. Please see:
      1. https://collections.lib.uwm.edu/digital/collection/agdm/search/searchterm/india%20–%20maps/field/subjec/mode/exact/conn/and/order/title/ad/asc
      2. https://zenodo.org/communities/old-survey-of-india-maps/?page=1&size=20 ; or
      3. https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-232825539
      Perhaps some of these sites will have what you are searching for.
