It does not seem to be a font issue. The default font picked up by Emacs is
Lohit Gujarati. See this image[0]. The same "નમસ્તે" string is rendering
incorrectly in the Emacs buffer, while shows up as expected in LibreOffice
5.2.5.1 when using the same font.

How do I specify the font to be used for specific glyphs (like only the the
Gujarati glyph Unicodes)? I can try different fonts. But I expect the
result to be the same in Emacs. That sample Gujarati string renders fine in
LibreOffice for few Gujarati fonts I had at hand.
