<h1>Karnataka Truckers Launch Indefinite Strike Over Fuel Hikes, Toll Issues, and Vehicle Restrictions</h1> Karnataka truckers began an indefinite strike against fuel price hikes and toll-related issues. The Federation of Karnataka State Lorry Owners and Agents Association, representing 129 associations with six lakh members, halted transportation within and outside the state. The strike aims to address several grievances including a five-rupee diesel price increase over nine months, alleged harassment at toll plazas, continued border checkposts despite GST implementation, proposed increases in fitness renewal fees for older vehicles, Bengaluru entry restrictions, and harassment by financial institutions. Officials report the strike has been successful initially, with no trucks entering or leaving Karnataka, potentially affecting essential commodity prices.
