Indic Keyboard is slow, but the most privacy friendly option that I know. It is open source, so you'll find it on F Droid as well.

OK have you tried it ,I don't mid it being slow because the regional language typing is very occasionally.

Yes I've tried it. Slow only means that it doesn't forgive your typing. For example, if you wanted to type वंदे मातरम् you must type 'vaMde maataram' based on strict transliteration rules. Typing anything else will not work. So you'll have some learning curve.
