Read Ashok K Banker's Ramayana edition- Here he has written clearly that the bridge the Lord Ram was trying to build will be destroyed in Tsunami.
Later Sea creatures will raise the hood for the monkey army to cross the palk strait one by one for two days.
Later they return to Ayodhya using Ravana's Pushpuk with sita and they do it in a day.
So according to original valmiki's edition still the bridge or now supposedly seen sand bridge cannot be scientifically claimed.

There is no Indian term for Tsunami. Not atleast in south India where most of the Indian coastline stretches. everyone calls it's a Tsunami which is a Japanese term. So what you say about Ashok Banker's Ramayan misses this name factor. What do they call tsunami here.

Valmiki wrote the ramayana who lived during ram's time. According to wikipedia, Ashok Banker's Ramayana is "A contemporary novel, it is an epic hard science fiction story about a war between the gods of different faiths. Weary of the constant infighting between religious sects and their deities, God (aka Allah, Yahweh, brahman, or whatever one chooses to call the Supreme Deity) wishes to destroy creation altogether." That says it all. It's contemporary fiction. Hindus have respect for valmiki's ramayana, not this Banker's fiction.
