Hi Safdar,
If you want to be sure that you sent an initial pose to amcl, just subscribe
at particlecloud output by amcl (i.e. rostopic echo particlecloud).
Everytime that you send a new initial pose, you should receive a messagge
(robot pose estimates), where the coordinates are the same that you sent
before. (Infact, the robot is still not moving, so the robot's pose
estimated should be still the initial pose).

In anycase, check:
1)If you're using nav_view, maybe you need to remap the topic..I don't use
nav_view for a long time, but I remember that I needed to do something
similar in the past;
2)Are you using a real robot, or are you just running a simulation? If
you're using a simulation with stage, please check if the robot is inside
your enviroment.
