I am getting following errors repeatedly upon using apt-get update command :

Ign http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org jessie InRelease
Err http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org jessie Release.gpg                      
  Something wicked happened resolving 'mirrordirector.raspbian.

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead

I also could not access my internet through raspbian browser

  • can you ping mirrordirector.raspbian.org or even google.com? if neither of those work but ping 216.58.198.238 does then its the DNS. That IP address is what I get for pinging google.com. Google's free DNS servers are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

Your domain name cob.apac.bosch.com makes me almost certain you're behind a corporate firewall with no internet access, which is the reason for the errors you're seeing.
