Bug : Glyph named 'katadeva' is not working.

Solution : Glyph 'katadeva' is a combination of Glyph 'kaprehalfdeva' & Glyph 'uni0924(त)'. In 'katadeva' Glyph info in the Ligatures option need to add New Ligature, in New Ligature under Subtable need to add " 'cjct' Conjunct Forms lookup 309 subtable " and then under Source Glyph Names need to add " kaprehalfdeva uni0924(त) "

Firstly I want to say Thank You to developers who created this beautiful font and appreciate their hard work.
I am attaching screenshot for to visual result before correction and after correction. This bug is in the every style of NotoSansDevanagari font, above I just mentioned one Regular style because I don't want that list long.
I request developers please make above correction so everyone who is using this font will get proper result.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the bug report. The k-ta ligature does work, but only in specific contexts. If your document's language is set to Nepali or Sanskrit, then you will get the ligated form; for Hindi or other languages you will get the half form. (This is true for Noto Serif as well.)
