+How many Indian government websites are using HTTPS? An attempt at tracking them using [18F/pulse](https://github.com/18F/pulse#setup).
+
+## The data includes:
+
+1. All sites listed at goidirectory.nic.in
+2. All domains that have been issued a cert for a subdomain in the `*.gov.in` suffix
+3. (TODO) All domains that have been issued a cert for a subdomain in the `*.nic.in` suffix
+
+## Progress:
+
+1. scraped goidirectory.nic.in
+2. queried crt.sh naively
+3. Ran `pshttt` on the list (scan is ongoing)
+
+## TODO:
+
+- [ ] need to improve parser to use alternative names from certs
+- [ ] use censys.io, what pulse suggests
