Padma was born into a herdsman family in 1942 in Xainza County in Nagqu City, southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region. During his childhood, his family was obliged to herd over 1,000 sheep for aristocrats, only receiving meager sustenance in return.

Padma established a new settlement with his companions by the Garco Lake in the 1970s, and was awarded the title of "national model worker" in 1989.
