Google Cloud DNS not resolving hosted domain

Question

I am using google cloud DNS for a domain. But for some reason, it is not resolving

root@ok:~# nslookup insurancegurukul.com
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 1.1.1.1, trying next server
Server:     8.8.8.8
Address:    8.8.8.8#53

** server can't find insurancegurukul.com: SERVFAIL

root@ok:~#

Name servers used for the domain is

root@ok:~# whois  insurancegurukul.com -h whois.internic.net | grep -i "Name Server:"
   Name Server: NS-CLOUD-A1.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
   Name Server: NS-CLOUD-A2.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
   Name Server: NS-CLOUD-A3.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
   Name Server: NS-CLOUD-A4.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
root@ok:~#

The domain resolve properly if i check with one of these name servers.

Any idea why the domain is not resolving ?

root@ok:~# nslookup insurancegurukul.com NS-CLOUD-A2.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
Server:     NS-CLOUD-A2.GOOGLEDOMAINS.COM
Address:    216.239.34.106#53

Name:   insurancegurukul.com
Address: 148.66.135.207

root@ok:~#

Well, that's interesting @JohnHanley. You should post on [meta] suggesting a change to the scope of SO. Go on. Do it. — , Nov 21 '18 at 13:22

The problem was caused by DNSSEC.

Whois of the domain had "DNSSEC: signedDelegation".

This is disabled in domain registar godaddy > domain > DNS > DNSSEC

Once this is done, DNS resolution started working properly.
