Version: 2.20
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: localedata
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: arjun.is at lostca dot se
CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org
executing:

This isn't the format used in India.
I have typically seen DD-MM-YY(YY) or DD/MM/YY(YY) in use in most places
including official tax forms, etc.
Here is the link to a copy of the Constitution of India:

It appears to consistently use "DD-MM-YYYY" (when I looked at the main "Parts I
to XXII" document).
