Read text in image using pytesseract

from PIL import Image
import pytesseract

im = Image.open("sample1.jpg")

text = pytesseract.image_to_string(im, lang = 'eng')

print(text)

Or

import pytesseract
import cv2

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe'

image = cv2.imread("ocr.png")
image_grayscal = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

data = pytesseract.image_to_string(image_grayscal)

Read texts in white color

import pytesseract
import cv2

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe'

image = cv2.imread("ocr.png")
image_grayscal = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
inverted_image = cv2.bitwise_not(image_grayscal) # color of text is white so we should invert colors

data = pytesseract.image_to_string(inverted_image)

Echo Bot using Python Telegram Bot

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# This program is dedicated to the public domain under the CC0 license.

"""
Simple Bot to reply to Telegram messages.
First, a few handler functions are defined. Then, those functions are passed to
the Dispatcher and registered at their respective places.
Then, the bot is started and runs until we press Ctrl-C on the command line.
Usage:
Basic Echobot example, repeats messages.
Press Ctrl-C on the command line or send a signal to the process to stop the
bot.
