JSON.stringify returns wrong value for the Date Object

Question

the below code returns one day earlier,

var myJSON = JSON.stringify(new Date("02/02/1997"));
alert(myJSON);

myJSON variables returns "1997-02-01T18:30:00.000Z"

Why its returning wrong value.

Here, what does the meaning of "T18:30:00.000Z"

Is there any other way of converts the Date object to the String.

Try this..

    var myJSON = JSON.stringify(new Date("02/02/1997").toLocaleString());
    alert(myJSON);
