    I found out solution my issue! Earlier I had put slicer on one page of the report and made it sync and visible on remaining pages of the report. Here, I thought that it would automatically get applicable to rest of the pages even if the data is coming from different datasets on different pages, which is not the case and I was unaware of this fact as I'm newbie to Power BI. 

     

    So, the solution I found by referring to "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPDjCuvKWCw&t=199s" this video and carefully thinking on it. Then I found my mistake and placed different slicer on different page, assign it a sync name, rest of the things are taken care of automatically (visiblity and sync). And this works AWESOME!!!!

Hmm, that doesn't sound like how sync slicer's are supposed to work. Very difficult to troubleshoot. You could check the Issues forum here:

And if it is not there, then you could post it.

Hey, thank you very much for your reply. 

 

But unfortunately, I do not find solution to my issue over here! 

 

And this is quite uniteresting that the slicer which mean to work with the whole report, does not work!
