Ok found the problem it was because of a missing coma in the symbol file in
that sarala section. which is fixed upstreams in xkeyboard config with this
commit ->

With the help of fellow kde user Tuxtoriel on #kde IRC channel I have a
workable input switcher.

Tuxtoriel found that the following section in the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/in
file was the problem.

xkb_symbols "tel-sarala" { name[Group1] = "Telugu (Sarala)";
key.type="FOUR_LEVEL"; // sequence base, shift, alt, alt + shift key  { [

I removed this section and everything is working fine now :) So this is a
workaround for now.

[systemsettings] [Bug 381352] Can't assign or change to indian keyboard layout, system tray icon is also missing.

@Christoph Feck

I tested neon 5.10.2 and it works correctly in it,
it has plasma version - 5.10.2
framework version - 5.35.0
Qt version 5.9.0

However when I test Opensuse tumbleweed, it is not working in it
tumbleweed has these versions of kde at the moment of testing

plasma version 5.10.2
fremework version - 5.34.0
Qt version - 5.9.0

Is there anything else that can pin point to the problem maker package.

Was this working in an earlier version? If yes, which updates broke it?

@ARPIT KUMAR GAHLOT yes now even I suspect that the issue is different and may
be in kde 5.10 I tested neon some days back and it behaved correctly. I'll
check again.

But for some of friends using debian gnome the xorg change gave problem. Hence
I linked the commit here

Same situation here. But I believe the Xorg decision to make base-extra in
rules folder might not be the issue, because this change is already released
and I was able to use Hindi(Wx) keyboard on Plasma 5.9 branch.

I have a Manjaro Mate install on another machine last updated before June 1
2017, in which changing layout works i.e.

   setxkbmap tel

gives Telugu layout

   setxkbmap dev

gives Devanagri.

   setxkbmap in

gives default Indian layout(Devanagri)

All these three comands on my Plasma 5.10.2 machine give 

   Error loading new keyboard description

I checked the rules folder in both machines:

/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules

and all files were identical. Sure, there exists a base.extras.xml separate
from base.xml consisting of all Indian language layout info. But, as noted
above, in Mate machine, changing layout works. In my Manjaro(Arch based)
install, everything was fine until 5.9 branch. Updating to 5.10 broke both
switching to any Indian layout. The widget indicator for changing layout also
does not work. I believe this is a KDE issue, not Xorg one.

@Kai Uwe Broulik is this ->
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xkeyboard-config/commit/?id=913af7dafaab8ff4a9ae0d1e4c4097caf4a8022d
somehow related?

They moved the indian language input methods to base-extra in rules folder. all
for the reason that it is confusing in the gnome-control center. Do you guys
know this?

@Kai Uwe Broulik I don't have it (Ctrl + Alk + K) to do that as i need it in
other program. But the alternative alt + capslock which is there in settings
doesn't work. It just shows the US in the on screen display notification

Does Ctrl+Alt+K (keyboard to switch layouts) work for you?

Hmm, I toggled it off and back on (System Settings → Input Devices → Keyboard →
Layouts → "Show layout indicator" in top left) and now it's there again. Weird.

I upgraded to Qt 5.9 and I now also lost my keyboard layout indicator.
