Hi,
first install nltk, check out installation instruction for that
http://www.nltk.org/download
Than use nltk.download() to download nltk_data(http://www.nltk.org/data)
Thanks

Dear Vishnu,

Some points before you install nltk:

1) wget www.nltk.org doesn't install nltk on your computer.

2) The error you are getting after typing the following command:

python -m nltk.downloader -d /usr/share/nltk_data

It says its not able to load the modules.

So now its time to install nltk.

Regards
-Avinesh
