The text displayed before you start chatting with a bot is the Bot's description

Use the @botFather to change the description for your bot:

  • /setdescription
  • /mybots
    1. Click desired bot
    2. Edit Description
    3. Send your description as a text message

This will then show up if you start chatting with the bot:

  • @NehaDeshpande That was not clear from your question. However, there has already been questions here about automating BotFather conversation, like [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41209343/how-to-create-a-bot-with-in-telegram-with-botfather-and-using-only-a-code) or [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37231451/automate-setcommands). There should be some with code examples, but can't find them real quick. – 0stone0 Jun 13 '20 at 19:51
