Thanks for all. 

But the strange thing is that if the request comes on 53 port then it should
go only from 53 is it?? Why goes out from 0, any clue would be highly
appreciate.

Regards
Ejaz

Remember this is TCP traffic.

RRL is designed to deal with spoofed UDP traffic. It can actually make
non-spoofed floods worse, because RRL pushes UDP traffic to TCP, and TCP is
very easy to saturate.

You might find it helps to avoid truncated responses, e.g. by turning on the
minimal-responses option. (See also minimal-any in BIND 9.11)
