No, they are not. Online Criminal Law Diplomas are not sufficient to practice as a Lawyer in India. In fact, the BCI does not approve many degrees and certifications done online or in a distance learning mode.
There are certain eligibility requirements that need to be fulfilled for legal practice. You need to have a full-time bachelor's degree in Law and then pass the AIBE exam and obtain a "Certificate of Practice".

Hi, though many top NLUs like GNLU Gandhinagar, NLU Patiala, NLU Visakhapatnam, etc., offer Criminal Law specialization. The National Law University Delhi (NLU Delhi) is specifically famous for Criminal Law and its allied fields. They even have a dedicated Centre for Criminology and Victimology where they conduct research, training, and policy analysis in criminology and victimology.
