Lyca Group Shuts Down Oruvan Daily, Staff Left Stranded – Protests Erupt Outside Office

In a shocking decision, Lyca Group has abruptly shut down its Tamil daily newspaper, Oruvan, last week, leaving its employees in crisis.

Journalists and media professionals, many of whom left stable jobs for higher salaries at Oruvan, now find themselves jobless overnight.

Adding to the uncertainty, unconfirmed reports suggest that Oruvan’s digital news platform may also be shut down soon, potentially as early as today.

However, no official statement has been made regarding its closure.

Frustrated and devastated by the sudden decision, Oruvan staff have gathered in large numbers outside the publication’s office, staging protests against Lyca’s management.

Employees are demanding explanations, financial support, and accountability for the abrupt shutdown that has thrown their livelihoods into jeopardy.

With tensions escalating, the media industry is closely watching how Lyca Group will respond to this growing crisis.

Will the company address its employees’ concerns, or will it leave them in the lurch?
