Description
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
import pandas as pd
import datetime as dt
import pytz
tz = pytz.timezone('America/New_York')
data1 = pd.DataFrame([
{'date': dt.datetime(2019, 1, 1, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 10},
{'date': dt.datetime(2019, 1, 1, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 10},
{'date': dt.datetime(2019, 1, 2, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 20}
]).set_index('date')
print(data1.index)

data2 = pd.DataFrame([
{'date': pd.Timestamp(year=2019, month=1, day=1, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 10},
{'date': pd.Timestamp(year=2019, month=1, day=1, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 10},
{'date': pd.Timestamp(year=2019, month=1, day=2, tzinfo=tz), 'value': 20}
]).set_index('date')
print(data2.index)
# DatetimeIndex(['2019-01-01 00:00:00-05:00', '2019-01-01 00:00:00-05:00',
# '2019-01-02 00:00:00-05:00'],
# dtype='datetime64[ns, America/New_York]', name='date', freq=None)
# Problem description
Creating index from python datetime object shifts time by n minutes depending on chosen timezone
Expected Output
Output for index created from datetime object should be same as created from Timestamp
