Indian currency Rupee has become the fifth currency in the world to be assigned a symbol. The Indian parliament gave permissions to assign rupee with a rare symbol. The symbol is a blend of two popular scripts, Devnagiri and Latin.
The credit to find the right symbol goes to D. Udaya Kumar, the man who wins hearts of the Indian cabinet with his intelligent design. The symbol represents two horizontal lines, which cuts the Devnagiri (RA) in the upper section as shown in the picture above. Both lines cut across the Devnagiri script (RA) right on the top, which is in contrast to other currency symbols in the world.
