Issue with time, when we use Current Date function

Hi,

Issue with time, when we use Current Date function.

@DateTime.CurrentDate("MMM dd yyyy hh:mm:ss a" ,"EST")


It returns 1 hour less then the actual time. Is't because of Day light saving.

Hi,

Instead of "EST", could you please try with "America/New_York". I have tested this API in following manner, it looks to be working. I think 3 letter acronyms, e.g. EST, PST doesn't consider DayLight Saving. So, yes looks like the issue is with DayLight.

@DateTime.CurrentDate("MMM dd yyyy hh:mm:ss a", "America/New_York")
