Being added to a Telegram group makes you very uncomfortable when you don't know the people in that chat group, or don't have the same topic to talk about. Therefore, you should control who can add you to the Telegram group, to avoid adding to random chat groups. And Telegram completely has the option to adjust who adds you to the group, similar to controlling who can add you to a WhatsApp chat group. The article below will guide you how to block others from adding you to the Telegram group.
