And also if you just restore it you need to again enter the password

so you can fix this only by taking your device to the recovery mode

and then restore the device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414


To put the device to recovery mode press and hold the power button after connecting to the computer till you see a itunes logo


This solved my question

If you are trying to reset a disabled iPad from a different computer then (from here) :

If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.


If your content (apps, music, films etc) are on that computer then you will be able to re-sync them to it, but presumably you won't have a backup on that computer from which to restore your apps content from.
