I want to measure resistance in the range of 1 milliohms to 10 ohms..
Please advice if somebody has an idea or circuit diagram..

You can use a Wheatstone Bridge:
here you have a lot of information; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheatstone_bridge

Hope it is useful

A wheatstone bridge will great its own problems for miliohm. If you have low current it has high noise if you have high current you are heatingup the object that you are testing etc.

I made a other solution based on the application note from linear technology.
http://cds.linear.com/docs/Application Note/an98f.pdf
Go to page 10 & 11
It is a easy design that works good and it is not affected by noise and keeping current low.
i hoop you like it.

Because the app note URL has a space in it, it doesn't "auto link" very well. Here it is again in clickable form (fingers crossed ;)

Thanks peter,
I will try this circuit and let all know the result.
