First of all, Pakistan is among those countries of the World, who use to define standards again and again.

"From census to census the definition of literacy has been undergoing changes, with the result that the literacy figure has vacillated irregularly during the last 10 censuses."

And, as it regards to Finance Division's Statistics, is there anyone who can tell that in which country literacy rates are counted from the age of 10?

No census has been conducted since 1998 and how come stats pop out every year?
