This is quite likely. Asoka was at one point of time viceroy in Takshashila. The place may well have remained close to his heart, quite apart from being an important city of the empire. While the wheels hint at a Buddhist motif, the lions were Persian in character. Most empires harked back to Achaemenid Persia in some way or the other, except for the Chinese and Japanese empires. It is quite natural that this first historically authenticated empire should have quoted its immediate predecessor in some symbolical form. Perhaps this was it.

Balls,

saffron means Hindus,green means muslims and white is peace between them. Ashok Chakra is to avoid it looking like the Italian flag.
