However it is not necessary to select an Indic language as User Locale. Instead, we can select English (US) as the User Locale, if the situation demands.
System Locale:
This Setting is invoked by clicking on the Set Default command button at the bottom of the Regional Options.By design, no Indian language can be selected as the System Locale. English (US) or (UK) is the best choice in any situation.
