How to contact the Calangute MLA’s office about a local issue

A useful request explains the issue, where it is happening and what response would help. You do not need a long letter to begin. A short, factual account and a reliable way to follow up are often more helpful than several disconnected messages.

Start with the published office contact

The Goa Legislative Assembly publishes Michael Lobo’s official contact as 84460 01555, with an office at H.No. 181/15, Bhattivaddo, Parra, Bardez, Goa 403510. Call to confirm office hours, appointments and the accepted way to send a request. The contact page links to the Assembly profile so you can check the source.

What to include in your request

• The subject: one sentence describing the issue or assistance requested.
• The location: village, vaddo, road and a public landmark where relevant.
• The facts: dates, what you observed and how it affects access or services.
• Previous action: the department contacted and any acknowledgement or reference number.
• The next step: a request for an inspection, clarification, appointment or status update.

An example you can adapt

Subject: Request for follow-up on a damaged footpath. I am writing about the footpath near [public landmark] in [area]. I observed [brief description] on [date]. I previously contacted [office] under reference [number, if available]. Please advise which department is handling the matter and how I can follow up.

Keep the wording specific to your situation. Share only the personal information needed by the receiving office, through the channel it confirms. Avoid including unrelated identity documents or other people’s private details in an initial enquiry.

Keep a record of the response

Ask for an acknowledgement where available and note the date and office responsible for the next step. A request to an MLA’s office does not itself establish approval, eligibility or a completed departmental action.

The homepage’s request-draft tool can help organise your text. It prepares a draft in your browser; it does not submit a complaint, send a message or create a government-service application. You must contact the office separately to confirm submission.
