About the Village

Loutolim or Loutulim is a village in the Salcete taluka of South-Goa district of the state of Goa, in India.
Loutolim derives its name from Lovótollem, coined from the Konkani words – Lovó, a type of grass and Tollem, a pond—since those grasses used to grow abundantly around the pond. In Konkani, the local language, the village is known as Lottli and its native inhabitants are referred to as Lottlikar.
Loutolim is among one of Goa’s delightful villages, with lush green paddy fields and tranquil village roads that lie under a canopy of forest trees. Architectural relics of Goa’s grand Portuguese heritage can be seen around the unhurried village of Loutolim, some 10 km northeast of Margao. The centre of the village is the majestic whitewashed Church of Salvador do Mundo (Saviour of the World), one of Goa’s most impressive Mannerist Neo-Roman-style churches built in 1586.

As in other parts of Goa, in Loutolim, both Hindus and Catholics live together in peace and harmony, mingling with each other during their religious festivals. The religious activities of the Catholics are centred around the Saviour of the World church while those of the Hindus are centred around the Sri Ramnath temple.

About the Panchayat

The Loutulim Panchayat is the functional institution of grassroots governance for the village of Loutulim.
The Loutulim panchayat was once-upon-a-time a merger of the villages of Camurlim and Panchayat, and was known as Loutulim-Camurlim Panchayat. In 1973, independent panchayats were established for each of the villages of Loutulim and Camurlim.

The office of Loutulim Panchayat is located in front of the Church of Salvador do Mundo (Saviour of the World), next to Saviour of the World High School.
