The strikes in Karnataka have agitated industry leaders. They have reportedly criticised the two bandhs that were called this week over the Cauvery water dispute, one on Tuesday and one on Friday. Industry leaders reportedly claimed that strikes are not the solution and only cause significant economic losses for the state and inconvenience for the general public. According to reports, the losses estimated by the industry bodies for the two-day bandh amount to ₹4,000 crore. The staggering loss is a warning pointing out that the move may Cripple the economy, which has very recently recovered from the pandemic. Also, industry bodies said that the losses may act as a hindrance to becoming a $1 trillion economy anytime soon.

Starting next year, the self-declared Nagorno-Karabakh Republic will no longer exist, as its president has issued a decree to dissolve all state institutions in the aftermath of its defeat by Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani victory led to a mass exodus of ethnic Armenians residing in Nagorno-Karabakh and marked the conclusion of long-standing conflicts. President Samvel Shahramanyan's decree mandates the dissolution of all institutions and organizations of the Republic of Artsakh, an entity not internationally recognized, by the beginning of the upcoming year.
