About this character

U+219A (↚) is LEFTWARDS ARROW WITH STROKE, a mathematical symbol in the Arrows block. Its script is Common: it is shared by many writing systems rather than belonging to one. It was added in Unicode 1.1 (1993).

It is precomposed. Under NFD it decomposes into U+2190 ← + U+0338 ◌̸, and NFC recombines that sequence into this single codepoint, so both spellings are canonically equivalent and should compare equal after normalization. See the normalization guide.
