+1 on this. Some ligatures are not rendered: eg, त्र is showing up as त् र (two letters) with the default Ubuntu, because of this "Raghindi" font setting. Changing it to (in my case) Noto fixes the rendering. I made the change in my home directory (.config/ fontconfig/ conf.d/ ). Please change this system setting.
