I am not agree with you, I think Modi is waiting for right time. Pakistan government insulted home minister Raj Nath during his latest visit of Pakistan. It may be proved U turn.
There cannot be a better platform than SAARC to say emphatically that Terrorists should not be eulogised as Martyrs and the strongest possible should be taken against Countries that support terrorism. This was what Rajnath Singh said In the wake of protests in Kashmir over the killing of Burhan Wani of Hijbul Mujahideen. Nawaz Sherif praised Burhan Wani and called him a Martyr. In such a hostile atmosphere, in which Pakistan playing Key role, India has warned Pakistan, that it would not tolerate any Terrorist activities and deal with Pakistan in a befitting way.

There are acupressure points in our feet which can really help. Please check this video on YouTube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1w5h0GGPpE
It's just a 3-4 minutes video, but the guy is thorough. I've tried this for my son too, I think it's quite effective. Also, getting up early in the morning and trying to sleep early will help a lot. This would take about 3-4 days, you might find yourself tired in the morning initially, but eventually, the early night's relaxing sleep would help you a lot.

At a very young age, I had seen the Movie Shabab, starring Bharat Bhushan and Nutan in the lead roles. Naushad composed Music. Rafi's song Mehalon Me Rahane Wale was the only song I liked. But there are many memorable songs sung by Manna Dey, Hemant Kumar and the well known classical singer Amir Khan. The reason for my liking only Rafi's song was, I could not understand the classical and semi classical nuances at that young age.
How may understand classical and semi classical,but they enjoy all songs. Pucho Na Kaise Maine Rain Betai, is one typical classical song of Manna Dey but I enjoyed this song.
True. I watched Shabab at a very young age of 12, in Hyderabad along with my father. Out of all the songs in Shabab, I liked Rafi's song 'Mehlon me Rahane Wale, because the song was simple with less classical tinge.
With age, I developed a liking towards classical and semi classical songs. For example I immensely liked, Bade Ghulam Ali Khan's 'Shubh Din Aayo Raj Dulara' from Mughale Azam.
It happen with every one. In my childhood I didn't song of Mukeh because most of songs of Mukesh are sad song, like it didn't like Raj Kapoor because of his mustache,

It is true Anil, although the immediate cause for collapse of bridge might be different but at the root of it all, lies the same old monster that is destruction of natural resources and habitat. Rainfall of this magnitude is nothing new for Konkan and the bridge had weathered more than 80-90 decades of such rains. But uncontrolled sand mining, destruction of natural riverside vegetation are the main cause behind it. There is a reason for the existence of sands, silt in the river and vegetation on river banks. They all are designed to absorb and reduce the impact of floods to adjoining regions. But since they are all destroyed, majority of the thrust of flood waters is directed to man-made structures which cannot resist the impact and therefore collapse.
We have to pay cost for all false game with nature.

some users are mixing the concept of martial law with war against Pakistan. We don't need martial law for a war. This is a strategic decision that the ministry of defence/ armed forces may take. We had war with Pakistan a number of times and still hostilities continue from time to time.
Exactly. Whatever may be strategy, be it a war or Martial Law, Hostilities of Pakistan should be arrested once and for all. Today Rajnath Singh in the SAARC Home ministers meet held in Islamabad, Pakistan highlighted this Terrorist activities. Additionally he added that India will not tolerate any terrorist activities in its neighboring countries. These will be dealt with Iron hand.
I am afraid what all Rajnath Singh said is just plain rhetoric and bluster. His words do not match the ground reality where the security forces are not given a free hand. If this is the position who will ever enforce martial law? Not Modi, no one.
What Rajnath said in the SAARC Home Ministers meet targeting Pak was with the consent of Modi and his Government. His statement in no uncertain terms say, any individual or an institution or a Country who abet terrorism will be firmly dealt with. I feel, his statement or warning whatever you say is India is determined to retaliate in the same manner as Pak has done earlier.
If they had been determined to retaliate, they would have done so long ago. There have been opportunities to do that until now!
Indian leaders have always taken a defensive attitude and defended when they were attacked by Pakistan in the past three wars. No wonder then that Pakistan tends to take us for granted. At least now that Rajnath Singh has made a start with an impactful speech, let us hope that also transcends to action . There should be single minded commitment to stopping infiltration and terrorism and all voices of dissent and double speak by Kashmiri leaders like Mehbooba, Omar etc etc should be silenced..Of course the biggest hinderence would be the opposition parties, but with the support of the citizens, they too can be put in their place.But what is needed is a strong will by the central government !
