Ubuntu bug that dicriminates Tamils

Just installed Ubuntu 14.04 and noticed a strange bug in the installer. When I select my timezone as Colombo, Ubuntu automatically selects the default language as Sinhala and doesn't give any options to select Tamil in the list. After the installation, language settings window shows only Sinhala and a list of English language options. No Tamil there.

Tamil is an official language in Srilanka. It should be there as an option. Dear FOSS community friends, please file a bug report in launchpad and fix this bug as soon as possible. (I'm trying to file a bug report)
