Done the following changes with no luck.
# Allow NTP traffic through
$IPT_CMD --append INPUT -p udp --sport 123 --jump ACCEPT
$IPT_CMD --append INPUT -p udp --dport 123 --jump ACCEPT
# Allow NTP traffic through
$IPT_CMD --append OUTPUT -p udp --sport 123 --jump ACCEPT
$IPT_CMD --append OUTPUT -p udp --dport 123 --jump ACCEPT

Although it should not be, but could my ISP be blocking NTP packets. Although 
when I run ntpdate, it is fine and does not give any errors. Any ideas on how 
do I check about the ISP blocking the NTPD ports. They did that with SMTP(25) 
and no one at the helpdesk was able to confirm that. So no wonder they are 
doing this with NTP.

Regards.
