The officer incharge of a police post use the Karyakhas for collecting money illegally from the people of the area and other hit list persons. Sources said some officers are not using those Karyakhas who are honest to the core of their heart. Karyakhas know all illegal practices going on in the area and are fully conversant with all those involved in the illegal trade and give them shelter. Sources added that many senior officers are also using Karyakhas and depute them in many police stations for keeping close watch on the officers and their work. Every big and small deal is settled by these Karyakhas who also earns commission for it. He is every time found wandering in the area for hunting and do not do his official duty.

As per reports the Karyakhas is known to all the police personnel in the police stations and vice- versa and because of his connections with higher ups no one is dares to ask him to perform his official. According to sources some Karyakhas are so faithful to their officers that even when they are transferred they took them along to run the network in the new area. A Karyakhas on condition of not disclosing his identity said that he earns huge commission for the work being entrusted to him adding that some of the Kharyakhas are being promoted out of turn. At some places civilian are being used to work as Karyakhas so that no one have any doubt on him.
