Backstory
The base 'person running' emoji ( दौड़ने वाला व्यक्ति) was introduced in Unicode 6.0 (2010). The Skin Tone Modifier 1F3FE (🏾) was added in Unicode 8.0 (2015). The ZWJ sequence for gender (200D 2640 FE0F for female) allows for gender-specific representations, making it a female runner. This combination provides a more inclusive range of emoji representations.
