5. Start a conversation with the bot on Telegram by searching for its name or username.

Usage

Once the bot is running and you have started a conversation with it on Telegram, you can use the following commands and message formats:

• /start: This command initiates the conversation with the bot. It will introduce itself and provide a brief description of its capabilities.

• General Conversation: The bot can respond to various greetings, such as "hello," "hi," "greet," "morning," "afternoon," "evening," "night," "namaste," "namaskara," or "namaskar." It will reply with an appropriate greeting.

• Date and Time: You can ask the bot for the current date and time by including keywords like "time" or "date" in your message. The bot will respond with the current date and time in the local timezone.

• Social Media Links: You can ask the bot for links to popular social media platforms by including keywords like "youtube," "instagram," "linkedin," "facebook," "twitter," "whatsapp," or "gmail" in your message. The bot will reply with the corresponding URL.

• Weather Information: To obtain weather information for a specific city, include the keyword "weather" followed by the city name in your message. The bot will fetch the current temperature and weather description using the OpenWeatherMap API and provide the information in Celsius.

Limitations

• The bot's weather functionality relies on accurate city names. If an incorrect city name is provided, the bot will not be able to retrieve weather information.

• The bot's conversation skills are limited to pre-defined responses. It may not understand complex or context-specific queries.

• The bot's social media links are provided as general URLs and do not take into account specific user profiles.
