The '''1998 Census of Pakistan''' was the fifth [[Census in Pakistan|Pakistani national census]]. It provided a detailed enumeration of the population of [[Pakistan]] at the time it was conducted under the authority of the [[Pakistan Bureau of Statistics]], an agency of the [[Government of Pakistan]].<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.pbs.gov.pk/content/demographic-indicators-1998-census| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130910111514/http://www.pbs.gov.pk/content/demographic-indicators-1998-census| archive-date = 2013-09-10| title = DEMOGRAPHIC INDICATORS - 1998 CENSUS {{!}} Pakistan Bureau of Statistics}} </ref> According to the 1998 census, the population of Pakistan proper (excluding [[Kashmir|disputed territories]]) stood at 130,857,717 people. With the inclusion of the population of [[Azad Kashmir|Azad Jammu & Kashmir]] and [[Gilgit-Baltistan|Gilgit−Baltistan]], the population stood at 134,714,017 people. Despite being mandated by the [[Constitution of Pakistan]] to be held every 10 years, this was the first census to take place in Pakistan after the [[Census in Pakistan|1981 census]] that took place 17 years earlier, and the next census would not be held for another 19 years, [[2017 Census of Pakistan|until 2017]]. The inconsistencies in Pakistan's national elections are due in part to [[Indo-Pakistani wars and conflicts|political turmoil]] and [[Military coups in Pakistan|instability]] within the country.
