Now that U+0BD0 (ௐ) is the Unicode code for Tamil ohm (Tamil om), the following proposal investigates the ways to output various shapes and types of Tamil ohm. Please send your comments to Tamil_Araichchi. When I first proposed the Tamil Ohm character to be included within Unicode as an atmoic code point there was significant resistance from UC and WG02. It was a hard won struggle and managed to get it approved as an atomic code point. As the Dnagar Ohm from the inception of Unicode was made atomic, the discrimination part of the argument finally made the UC relent and encode atomic Ohm/ௐ.
[According to researchers, the Ohm which was originally used in Proto-Tamil was then extended to Sumeri and eventually also to Hinduism. [evideneces to document]]

Draft document v4.2
Base character at U+0BD0 is the standard glyph shape of Ohm. Various shapes of Ohm in use are further defined as ligatures of base character ohm. The ligatures include varient ohm shapes, varient ohm muruga shapes, varient Ohm Sakthi, varient Ohm Pillaiar and varents of other/private ohm shapes.
