Karnataka Transporters Strike: Impact on Logistics and Supply Chain Operations Transportation in Karnataka is severely impacted as about six lakh lorries have been removed from roads because of an indefinite strike by transporters in the state. This event poses great difficulty for companies that depend on timely logistics and regular supply chain operations. Understanding the Strike Based on reports by Deccan Herald, transport associations in Karnataka have called for an indefinite strike, which has taken around 600,000 commercial vehicles off the road. The strike is a result of outstanding issues between transporters and the state government affecting freight movement across the region. Impact on Supply Chains The direct impact of this strike can be seen in the logistics environment across Karnataka: ● Delivery of essential goods is likely to be delayed and disrupted ● Manufacturing industries might face raw material shortages ● Consumer product distribution networks are being compelled to find alternate arrangements ● Retail and wholesale industries are preparing for inventory woes Business Contingency Planning-
