Oyo ‘No Unmarried Couples’ Rule in Meerut Ignites Social Media Reactions

If you think love conquers all, think again! In Meerut, love now comes with paperwork. OYO Rooms, a well-known motel chain, has introduced a new policy that bans unmarried couples from checking into their hotels. To stay at an OYO in the city, couples now need to show proof of marriage.

This new rule, OYO claims, is about providing "safe experiences" and respecting local values. However, the move has left many on social media surprised, amused, and a little outraged, with users creating memes and jokes about the sudden shift in OYO’s stance.

Not the First Traditional Turn in Uttar Pradesh
Uttar Pradesh has seen similar steps before. Back in 2023, during the holy Hindu month of Sawan, the state banned open meat sales for two months instead of one, aligning with religious sentiments. OYO’s recent decision seems to follow the same traditional path.

Social Media Erupts with Reactions
Social media users were quick to respond to this change with witty memes and posts.

“Lovebirds Not Welcome”
One user humorously wrote:
“Attention All Lovebirds! OYO's New Rule: Married Couples—Check-in! Single Couples—Get out!”

“Professional Boundaries, Please”
Another user joked about the policy’s implications, saying:
“@oyorooms, can you provide partitions between double beds for unmarried couples or unconventional duos (e.g., lady boss & male subordinate) to maintain professional boundaries? #ResponsibleHospitality.”

“Commitment Over Convenience”
A post mocking the policy read:
“OYO is taking ‘till death do us part’ a bit too literally with this policy! Guess they’re trying to make sure couples are really committed before they check in. #UnmarriedCouples #OYOPolicy.”

Critics Predict a Marketing Disaster
Some believe this decision could harm OYO’s business. One user remarked:
“OYO’s new rule bans unmarried couples from staying in their hotels. By the next quarter, their marketing manager might be job-hunting, and their CEO could be scrambling for fresh funds.”

Support from Tea Stalls
One entrepreneurial user shared a creative photo of a tea stall with a special offer:
“Tea for couples: ₹15. Tea for people betrayed in love: ₹10.”
The caption read, “OYO may not support you, but we do. Visit us for tea and comfort.”

Marriage Certificates Before Check-In
Some posts pointed out the absurdity of the new rule. One said:
“OYO just became a matchmaker! Now you need a marriage certificate to book a room. Guess love will have to wait for legal paperwork. #SingleStruggle #LoveIsNotAFormality.”

Practical Concerns Raised
Another user questioned the logic of the rule, saying:
“What will married couples even do at OYO? This decision makes no sense and should be reconsidered.”

Cartoons and Memes Steal the Show
One cartoon showed a receptionist telling two men:
“No proof of relationship needed for you.”
The visual humorously highlighted how this policy might overlook certain biases.

Hotel Owners Face a Blow
A meme predicted a financial hit for OYO, saying:
“OYO bans unmarried couples. Hotel owners: Bhari nuksan hoga humara.” (We will suffer heavy losses.)
