<p>I found the following link from SO which helped me to resolve the issue <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45805483/kubernetes-pods-cant-resolve-hostnames">KubeDNS Masquerade</a></p>
<pre><code>firewall-cmd --list-all
  ... 
  masquerade: yes
</code></pre>
<p>Enable if it's &quot;no&quot;:</p>
<pre><code>firewall-cmd --add-masquerade --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload
</code></pre>
