my model code:

public function deleteSlider($sliderID)
{
    $this->db->delete('slider_tbl',array('slider_id' => $sliderID));
    $path = base_url("uploads/slider/".$result[0]->slider_image);
    if($this->db->affected_rows() >= 1){
    if(unlink($path))
    return TRUE;
    } else {

Try Changing your $path.

$path = base_url("uploads/slider/".$result[0]->slider_image);

to

$path = "./uploads/slider/" . $result[0]->slider_image;

Change

$path = base_url("uploads/slider/".$result[0]->slider_image);

to

$path = FCPATH . "uploads/slider/" . $result[0]->slider_image;

You need to use the path to the file on the server, not the URL, so you need something like:

$path = "/uploads/slider/".$result[0]->slider_image;

without the base_url.
