[GRASS-user] problem in projection of shape files

[Zahid Parvez]

hi
I have a shape file which I have to import in GRASS. Shape file is consists
of a shape file, a dbf file and a prj file.
The prj file has following information.

PROJCS["BTM",
GEOGCS["GCS_Everest_1830",
DATUM["D_Everest_1830",
SPHEROID["Everest_1830",6377299.36,300.8017]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],
UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],
PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],
PARAMETER["False_Easting",500000.0],
PARAMETER["False_Northing",-2000000.0],
PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",90.0],
PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9996],
PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0.0],
UNIT["Meter",1.0]]


I will be very grateful if anyone could help me to find the ESPG code and
any other way to re-project the shape file
 and import into GRASS.
