  1. I had this question too. To get the answer I created a private channel and added one of my friends to it and posted some text.
    So only 2 people were in the channel and as the channel was private no one else had the chance of visiting the channel. After some days I understood that posts’ view count increases and after searching a lot I understood that telegram counts view times when a specific user sees the post and this is repeated every 24 hours.

    For example if you view a post today at 8:00 pm, other views will not
    count until tomorrow 8:00 pm and this cycle continues.

    Update: After reading Krishnakanth Allika’s comment, I decided to update my answer in order to help those who are visiting this page a long time after the date the post was published. Telegram mentions in this link that these stats are reset about every 4 days which is a more up-to-date information.

  2. You can’t have this number from Telegram Bot, but you can get from post-link.
    For example link to post https://t.me/losslesmusic/443

    The counter is this:

    > <span class="tgme_widget_message_views">55</span><span
    > class="copyonly"> views</span><span
    > class="tgme_widget_message_meta"><a class="tgme_widget_message_date"
    > href="https://t.me/losslesmusic/443"><time
    > datetime="2018-02-26T19:14:11+00:00">Feb 26 at 21:14</time></a></span>
