In summary, Telepathy is not possible as there is no biological mechanism for it. However, there are articles and experiments that suggest it can be achieved through absolute concentration, but the reliability of these sources and the conditions under which the experiments were conducted must be considered.

But I read an article saying that if the two persons of communication are in absolute concentration it can be done.

Where did you read that article, you should always judge the reliability of a source. You should also take into account the conditions under which the experiment was conducted. Under certain conditions you can program someone subconsciously to get a certain answer.
