[2] In 2020, Andhra Bhoomi suspended publication, and in 2021, DCHL confirmed its permanent closure.
With a circulation of approximately 365,794, it operated editions from major cities such as Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, Rajamahendravaram, Anantapur, Karimnagar, and Nellore, as well as a presence in Bangalore.
In 2020, Andhra Bhoomi halted publication due to financial issues, but its management did not formally release employees, leaving them hopeful for a possible revival.
In March 2021, Deccan Chronicle Holdings Limited (DCHL) confirmed the newspaper's permanent closure, citing an inability to pay outstanding wages.
The affected staff sought help from the Telangana State Human Rights Commission, which issued a notice to DCHL, requesting a response within two weeks.
