Extracting table and table name from PDF - vinibhat - Mar-03-2020

Hi All,

I am new to Python development. I am working on a project where we need to extract tables and their table names present in the PDF file.
I am currently using camelot library in python to extract the tables from the PDF but i am not sure how to extract the table name.
Is there a library/approach to perform the same? Any help is much appreciated.
