Abstract: In this paper main objective is to discuss how demand of new provinces is important and what are best policies for government to resolve it? Ethno-lingual movements are rising for new provinces demand because at initial stage these demands were just for rights but with the passage of time changed due to political support. Also in this paper India’s policy for new provinces is discussed to tell that why there are many provinces and less conflict. For Pakistan’s new provinces advantages and disadvantages are briefly deliberated which can provide rationale to Pakistani government for making new provinces. At the end of paper a four tiers model for new provinces is elucidated, that model was used in Papua New Guinea. Pakistan by administration has same structure like Papua New Guinea. According to model there should be an independent commission or entity, Parliament and Ministries role for decision making. However, one day we have to make decision for new provinces either it is done earlier or later. Pakistan government should realign boundaries of all provinces with political consensus .An independent commission should form for new provinces which should frame basic criteria for current and new provinces for a permanent solution. Also it is recommended that a just principle in the form of a policy decision is the need of hour, taking on board all the parties, ensuring the division to satisfy the grievances of all stakeholders. The role of higher education in the progress of a society is indispensable. It shapes up the minds, mold behaviors and develops distinctive capabilities in the human being to serve the society better. Higher Education in the Arab World began to emerge and spread after the mid-twentieth century. There is a dearth of empirical research pertinent to the employee performance in general and employee performance in higher education. This condition had therefore illuminated a significant gap in the education sector of KSA that tends to focus on overall sectoral problems and organizational level problems in respect to job performance. Thus, the present study may contribute to the existing literature on Public Sector Universities in KSA through proposed a research model which has not received much attention.
