Finding POI across India

Question

I'm looking for data containing point of interests or POI across India.
Only place name, location and state will be enough. I don't need details like it's location or it's shape.

Details like this will be good
Victoria Memorial - Museum - West Bengal
Data like this can be found from Google search but I'm looking for something like a database containing such infos.

Where can I get something like this for offline use ?

How about the Google Places API? You can get place information that you see on Google Maps through searching. There is a free $200 quota per month, that may provide you enough?
