'''Padma''' is a village in the [[Padma, Hazaribagh (community development block)|Padma]] [[Community development block in India|CD block]] in the [[Barhi subdivision]] of the [[Hazaribagh district]] in the [[India]]n [[States and territories of India|state]] of [[Jharkhand]].

==History==
The Padma Palace (also referred to as Padma Fort) of [[Ramgarh Raj]] is located at Padma. The Shivgarh gate is one of its main attractions. There is a photo gallery displaying the history of Ramgarh Raj.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://hazaribag.nic.in/Advertisement/Incredible%20Hazaribagh.pdf | title= Incredible Hazaribagh | work= Padma Fort |publisher= Jharkhand Government| accessdate = 11 November 2017}}</ref> The erstwhile estate now houses a police academy. The boundary wall and the main gate are on the Patna-Ranchi highway. This is the reaction of a boy, travelling in a bus, looking at the compound wall:"This wall is not like those that people in the town surround their homes with: it’s sculpted, carved and carries little domes on its pillars. In all fairness, it looks heartbreakingly ancient, and the boy wonders if respectable grandeur is always a property of the past."<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.talesofhazaribagh.com/padma.html | title= Padma - the current capital of Ramgarh Raj |publisher= Tales of Hazaribagh | accessdate = 13 November 2017}}</ref>

Padma is located at {{coord|24.2113|N|85.3624|E|display=inline}}.

[[Hazaribag Wildlife Sanctuary]] is {{convert|5|km}} from Padma.<ref name=administration>{{cite web |url = http://hazaribag.nic.in/pages/blpadma.htm |title = Padma Block |work = |publisher = District administration |accessdate = 2010-04-17 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100430215125/http://hazaribag.nic.in/pages/blpadma.htm |archive-date = 30 April 2010 |url-status = dead }}</ref>

===Area overview===
Hazaribagh district is a [[plateau]] area and forests occupy around about 45% of the total area. It is a predominantly rural area with 92.34% of the population living in rural areas against 7.66% in the urban areas. There are many [[census towns]] in the district, as can be seen in the map alongside. Agriculture is the main occupation of the people but with the extension of coal mines, particularly in the southern part of the district, employment in coal mines is increasing. However, it has to be borne in mind that modern mining operations are highly mechanised. Four operational areas of [[Central Coalfields]] are marked on the map. All these areas are spread across partly this district and partly the neighbouring districts.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.censusindia.gov.in/2011census/dchb/DCHB_A/20/2015_PART_A_DCHB_HAZARIBAGH.pdf| title = District Census Handbook, Hazaribag, 2011, Series 21, Part XII A | work = Pages 11-14 | publisher = Directorate of Census Operations, Jharkhand. | access-date = 1 November 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url = https://censusindia.gov.in/2011census/dchb/2015_PART_B_DCHB_HAZARIBAGH.pdf |title = District Census Handbook, Hazaribagh, 2011, Series 21, Part XII B |work = Census of India 2011 Page 26 | publisher= Directorate of Census Operations, Jharkhand | access-date = 26 January 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://sinclairenvironmental.com/karanpura/coalfields.htm |title=The North Karanpura Coalfields |work=Jharkhand |publisher=sinclair-environmental |accessdate=15 January 2021 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://archive.is/20150516093809/http://sinclairenvironmental.com/karanpura/coalfields.htm |archivedate=16 May 2015 }}</ref>
