How Can I Convert to Buddhism Without a Nearby Monastery?

I am from India and I want to convert to Buddhism. However, there are no Buddhist monasteries or temples near my home. Because of this, I am unsure about the proper process to formally convert. Is it necessary to visit a monastery and take initiation from a monk, or is there any way to convert online or virtually? I would really appreciate guidance on the correct and authentic way to become a Buddhist in this situation.
