Sometimes quoting backslashes can be tricky and surprising. If quoting them once solved it the first time, I would try quoting them again to solve the same error the second time.
Code:
var1=`echo "D:\FXT\ABC.TXT" | sed 's/\\\\/\\\\\\\\/g'`

Net::DNS::RR::RP(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       Net::DNS::RR::RP(3)

NAME
Net::DNS::RR::RP - DNS RP resource record SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS; $rr = new Net::DNS::RR('name RP mbox txtdname'); DESCRIPTION
Class for DNS Responsible Person (RP) resource records. METHODS
The available methods are those inherited from the base class augmented by the type-specific methods defined in this package. Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data structures is discouraged and could result in program termination or other unpredictable behaviour. mbox $mbox = $rr->mbox; A domain name which specifies the mailbox for the person responsible for this domain. Its format in master files uses the DNS convention for mailbox encoding, identical to that used for the RNAME mailbox field in the SOA RR. The root domain name (just ".") may be specified to indicate that no mailbox is available. txtdname $txtdname = $rr->txtdname; A domain name identifying TXT RRs. A subsequent query can be performed to retrieve the associated TXT records. This provides a level of indirection so that the entity can be referred to from multiple places in the DNS. The root domain name (just ".") may be specified to indicate that no associated TXT RR exists. COPYRIGHT
