Vijay...
This type of error comes , when there is errors in your DNS files......, i.e named.conf or forwarder files....

U have to check these files , may be something is wrong ..like it may be possible that by mistakenly..u have deleted some entries .,
JUST  try to  re-install bind packages.......
