And when doing reload

Reloading named: usage: killall [ OPTIONS ] [ -- ] name ...
killall -l, --list
killall -V --version

-g,--process-group kill process group instead of process
-i,--interactive ask for confirmation before killing
-l,--list list all known signal names
-q,--quiet don't print complaints
-s,--signal send signal instead of SIGTERM
-v,--verbose report if the signal was successfully sent

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.......
