American colleges do not award the Bachelor of Pharmacy degree, so you cannot complete that degree here. In the USA all pharmacy degrees are now at the doctoral level (PharmD) to get a Doctor of Pharmacy you would have to enter a College of Pharmacy and spent four years post-Bachelors. I don't think that you could get any credit at all for your undergraduate level pharmacy courses. And you cannot practice pharmacy in the US with a BS from India.
There might be a school that would transfer enough credits to allow you to get a BS in biology or chemistry, depending on what courses you took in India. You will definitely have to complete more courses in the USA. It all depends on exactly which courses you took in India.
This is a complciated situation and I don't think you will be able to get it resolved in three weeks. Sorry.
