Babu Dheen,

If you had a private internet with its own "root" name servers, and
supposedly no IP access to the public Internet except via proxied
firewalls, and you got this response, you would need to start looking
for leaks.

In your situation, where you are forwarding queries to the outside
world, this response is appropriate and necessary.
