# From Paul Eggert (2014-08-21):
# In tomorrow's The Hindu, Nitya Menon reports that India had two civil time
# zones starting in 1884, one in Bombay and one in Calcutta, and that railways
# used a third time zone based on Madras time (80 deg. 18'30" E). Also,
# in 1881 Bombay briefly switched to Madras time, but switched back. See:
