India's new Rupee symbol : An amalgamation of old & new ?

For those who've not seen the news - India now has an official Rupee symbol (see below)

I like the look.
Excellent combination of the Devanagiri "Ra" and the English "R". During the release there was apparently a point made about how it represents the Tricolour + Ashoka Chakra ?

Now, that is one bit that I cannot see ?

In any event, it will probably take some time to catch up on official usage - but, given the timing, I think it'll certainly catch on very quickly.
