Jairam Ramesh, Environment Minister in India, says climate science is infested with politics.
According to India Express:

"Declaring that “science is politics in climate change; climate science is politics”, Union Environment Minister Jairam Ramesh on Wednesday urged Indian scientists to undertake more studies and publish them vigorously to prevent India and other developing countries from being “led by our noses by Western (climate) scientists who have less of a scientific agenda and more of a political agenda”.
The minister’s remarks evoked a loud applause from over 100 Indian scientists who had gathered on the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) premises in Ahmedabad, where a study of 2,190 Himalayan glaciers undertaken by 15 institutes and organisations in India was

It is germaine that many Indian scientists aren't falling for this; India was a colony of Britain, and Indians learned to tell when they were the victims of smoke being blown up their backsides. The west has become entirely credulous, because we have gotten used to lying to ourselves to feel virtuous, but the emerging economies aren't going to believe a lie; they have real dangers and hardships to face. We've had it too soft for way too long in the West, and have come to worry about shadows. It's different in India.
Self-delusion is a luxury, one not easily purchased by poorer countries. We can enjoy it here, along with our champaign, craft-brewed ales, ribeye steaks, and brie cheese. When a rice ball is what sustains you, the truth is a necessity. They aren't buying our b.s.
Good! In the end, the truth shall set us all free! The left and elites in the West can play-act at doomsday all they wish, but as long as there are free peoples who will say "the Emperor has no clothes!" they cannot succeed in imposing their game on all of us. We don't want to play, and while our scientists may whore for government and foundation money, theirs will not, and the truth will not be surpressed.
Good for Jairam Ramesh!
