        int result = mTextToSpeech.setLanguage(new Locale("bn_IN"));//https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7973023/what-is-the-list-of-supported-languages-locales-on-android

        floatRead.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_volume_off);

        if (result == TextToSpeech.LANG_MISSING_DATA
                || result == TextToSpeech.LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED) {
            Log.i("TTS", "This Language is not supported");
            AppApplication.getInstance().showToast("This Language is not supported");
        }
        read(mNewsDetails.title, true);
        read(mNewsDetails.plain_text, false);

    } else {
        floatRead.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_read);
    }
    }

`

void read(String text, boolean flush) {
        if (flush == true) {
            if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
                mTextToSpeech.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null, null);
            else
                mTextToSpeech.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);
        } else {
            if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
                mTextToSpeech.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD, null, null);
            else
                mTextToSpeech.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD, null);

Try to set language & work fine for me.

@Override public void onInit(int i) { ..........

int result = mTextToSpeech.setLanguage(new Locale("bn_IN"));

-Google updates the Google TTS version on devices via software updates to make locales supportable.
Please verify in case Google TTS version is same in both device being tested.
As per my information, Google Text-to-speech 3.11.12 added support for Bangla along with various other improvements.
Refer:
Google TTS

-Samsung devices support:
Samsung text-to-speech engine
Google text-to-speech engine
Which in fact have different locale supported sets.
