Kar sevak or Kara sevaka Sanskrit?
editCommon words in a well-documented language are not up for contention, but they can be found out. The likelihood of a given form can also be found out; the presence or absence of short final "a" is a telltale sign in the development of Northern Indian languages. This case is obviously suspicious to everyone with a basic knowledge about (not necessarily in) Sanskrit, but for precisely that reason it can also be difficult to find generally acceptable sources online. Anyhow, I can't do it right now.
As for the source for "kar sevak" being Sanskrit, this one is not linguistic. It can also have been misunderstood, which is common enough.
