Hello Vishesh,

The query says:

For every triple <resA> nao:lastModified ?mod found in database (if
any),

prepare future removal of <resA> nao:lastModified ?mod
and
prepare insertion of <resA> nao:lastModified
"2012-01-29T16:29:11Z"^^xsd:dateTime .

When all (if any) operations are prepared, perform the actual edition of
the database.

No <resA> nao:lastModified ?mod at the very beginning --- no
manipulations prepared --- no effect.

The solution is to make separate DELETE and then an unconditional
INSERT.
