The guidelines of BCI is wrongly understood by many people. BCI never said LLB through correspondence or distance mode is not recognized. But, BCI guidelines say, if one acquires LLB through correspondence or distance mode, it is not valid if one did not have entire schooling and an under graduate degree in regular mode before enrolling for LLB in correspondence or distance mode. Hence, if a person had complete schooling and any UG degree in regular mode, then he can enroll for LLB in correspondence or distance mode for which BCI never objects.

No, you cannot practice until you do a regular course. Bar Council of India does not recognize correspondence course. -
Because Bar Council of India (which regulates lawyer's profession) does not recognize any distance education degree for LLB, therefore, even if you managed to obtain one, you will not be able to practice in court with that degree. In simple words, you cannot become a lawyer after doing LLB through distance or correspondence mode.
