Hi ramdev,

Heavy steering to one side is caused by the valve body attached to lower part of the steering rack not functioning properly.

Possible causes.
1. Stuck valve body control valve. You need to service it.
2. Turn indicator pin or bearing stuck. Might need to remove steering rack to service.

What do you mean oil box?
