Currently the data is stored in the package.

package/prakriya/data/ folder.

But it will make more sense to keep them at system specific places.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1084697/how-do-i-store-desktop-application-data-in-a-cross-platform-way-for-python may help.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/appdirs/1.4.0 is also an option.

The current implementation has two problems

Data resides in the package directory.
When the CLI is used, the location is slightly altered, so CLI script has to know the data location.
