Just install ibus and it has many options including transliteration -
type in phonetic english and you get Indian language output. It works
in any application including your web browser. That way there is not
even an initial curve, but it can be slow compared to learning
inscript, so I think the initial effort to learn it is well worth the
effort.

You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your
rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as
they follow the rules: laws and constitution.
