Java script code not working in Internet Explorer while working perfectly fine in Google Chrome

Question

This code is working perfectly fine in Google Chrome while not working in Internet Explorer.

It is code of timer written in JavaScript and used with HTML.

If anyone can help console of both chrome and Internet Explorer screenshots are also attached. They show no errors.

function makeTimer() {

  //		var endTime = new Date("29 April 2018 9:56:00 GMT+01:00");	
  var endTime = new Date("19 May 2020 17:30:00 GMT+05:00");
  endTime = (Date.parse(endTime) / 1000);

  var now = new Date();
  now = (Date.parse(now) / 1000);

  var timeLeft = endTime - now;

  var days = Math.floor(timeLeft / 86400);
  var hours = Math.floor((timeLeft - (days * 86400)) / 3600);
  var minutes = Math.floor((timeLeft - (days * 86400) - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
  var seconds = Math.floor((timeLeft - (days * 86400) - (hours * 3600) - (minutes * 60)));

  if (hours < "10") {
    hours = "0" + hours;
  }
  if (minutes < "10") {
    minutes = "0" + minutes;
  }
  if (seconds < "10") {
    seconds = "0" + seconds;
  }

  $("#days").html(days + "<span>Days</span>");
  $("#hours").html(hours + "<span>Hours</span>");
  $("#minutes").html(minutes + "<span>Minutes</span>");
  $("#seconds").html(seconds + "<span>Seconds</span>");

}

setInterval(function() {
  makeTimer();
}, 1000);

Is invalid in IE it should be:

19 May 2020 17:30:00 GMT+0500

Chrome has a better parser in Date object I guess and tolerates different formats
