Paras,

You could try to use SuperLU_MT (see 
https://portal.nersc.gov/project/sparse/superlu/) but we don't have wrapper 
for it. The Krylov solver in deal.II are multithreaded but the 
preconditioners are not. What you can try is to use deal.II solvers and 
STRUMPACK (https://github.com/pghysels/STRUMPACK) for the preconditioner 
but again we don't have wrapper for it. 

Best,

Bruno
