Generic, ready-to-adapt voice OBD scripts for election campaigns — candidate introduction, rally invite, vote reminder, and volunteer recruitment.
Before You Record
Every script below uses placeholder fields like [Candidate Name]
and [Constituency] instead of real names, and carries no party branding. They are
starting points for your team or voice-over artist to adapt, not audio to record and dial as-is.
A good election OBD script is short (20-30 seconds), states one clear message, speaks in the listener's own language, and — where relevant — ends with a press-1 option to connect the caller to a live team member or an IVR menu. Every real script needs its own DLT template approval before it can be recorded and dialled.

Compliance
Every OBD script — however close to these examples — needs its own DLT template approval under a registered Principal Entity before it can be recorded and dialled. Outbound commercial voice calls are also restricted to TRAI's 9 AM-9 PM window.
Election Commission of India rules add a 48-hour silence period, ending with the hour fixed for the close of poll, restricting voter-facing scripts before polling — on top of the standard TRAI window. See our Voice OBD for Election Campaigns page for the full channel overview.
Election-period voice script content, including scripts adapted from these examples, may also require MCMC/ECI pre-certification — a requirement separate from, and in addition to, DLT template approval. See our Election Communication Compliance Guide for the full breakdown across every compliance layer.
Common Questions
No. These are generic, illustrative scripts with placeholder fields like [Candidate Name] and [Constituency]. A real campaign must finalise its own exact wording — with real names and details — and get it approved on the DLT platform before recording and dialling.
Most effective OBD scripts run 20-30 seconds — long enough to deliver one clear message, short enough that voters don't hang up before it finishes. A press-1-to-connect option can be added at the end for callers who want to speak to the campaign team.
TRAI regulations restrict commercial voice calls, including OBD, to the 9 AM-9 PM window. The Election Commission's silence period adds a further restriction — voter-facing campaign calls are prohibited for the 48 hours ending with the hour fixed for the conclusion of polling, on top of this standard telecom-regulation window.
