Consider the Gigaset GS4 or one of their older devices. The GS4 is not currently rooted afaik but some of their older devices (GS290?) are supported by (edit)e.foundation [1] and etc. As an additional benefit, they are made in Germany (though the origin of the parts is probably not exclusively German I guess.)
Just buy Pixel phones, the pure Android experience and day 1 updates are worth it. The new Pixel 6 will use LTS kernel and custom SoC, rumored to have updates for 5 years instead of what was a standard of 3.
Depending on your definition that’s also a Chinese phone. You might be able to get one build in India, but that require a lot of effort.
The problem is that you’re more or less screwed if you trust neither China nor Google. Generally speaking the iPhone is your best option, but partly due to a lack of options.
