Thanks folks for your responses.
We finally find out that all the new sessions were coming out of one of
the application servers that was supposed to submit some jobs at the
database server but somehow it was establishing connections in infinite
loop. That box is unmanaged so we are good for now.
Appreciate your help.

1) Connection pooling.
You can either have connection pooling at the DB or at the application
level.
You already mentioned you do not use connection pooling at the DB level.
Looks like an application connecting to your database is not using
connection pooling either. Looks like it is opening a new connection for
every query. It also looks like it is not closing the connections
properly after use.
It is good database coding practice to be using connection pooling at
the application level. That way, only a set number of connections are
opened and are kept open and reused, reducing the load on resources.
This also speeds up queries since connections don't have to be opened
for each query.
Make sure to communicate that to the app developers.
2) One way to check who is opening all the connections is to use the OS
command:
netstat -an
Try to find all the ip addresses connecting to the database server and
track it down and find your culprit.
