<p>I want to know the <strong>cost of milk</strong> on a <strong>year by year basis</strong>, say for the last 10 or 20 years. similarly I may want to know price of other items also (petrol, rice, biryani, etc). I just need the average values. What is the best source of knowing these things. I'm <strong>particular about India</strong>. Please give me any website name or so that provides such statistical data.</p>
