Yes, a few institutes like Shree Pashmi Institute of Management and Science and Kashyap Edutech offer Distance BSc Nursing programs in India. The average course duration of Distance BSc Nursing is around 4 years. However, I would suggest you to go for a full-time BSc Nursing course as it will provide you with the required hands-on experience in a clinical setting, which is important to Nursing students.

A distance programme will also lack the level of interaction and support from peers and many recruiters prefer candidates with regular degrees.

Whether to choose a BSc in Nursing or a BDS depends on your personal interests and career goals, however, BSc Nursing is a better choice if you want to explore a wider range of career options, global opportunities, and a focus on holistic patient care. BDS, on the other hand, would be better if you want to specialize in dentistry or eventually open your own practice.
