I checked for firewall, didn't find any locally on the host (no tcpwrapper 
enabled). Also, during this behavior, I saw lots of UDP packet loss on the host:

netstat -s | egrep -A4 "Udp:"
...
..


I tried similar local queries when traffic reduced (and when UDP pkt loss was 
zero) and both local queries succeeded.

Still struggling to identify the root cause.

PS: There were several NXDOMAIN queries (around 95%) sent to this DNS server 
during peak hours and NXDOMAIN reduced after business hours.
