Dr. Deboraj Muchahary started his journey of life in a poor but beautiful family who reside in a small village named Koptupali. His family members are Baijanti Muchahary (mother), Dhumal Muchahary (father), Chameli Muchahary (aunt), Rashmi Muchahary (sister) and Amit Muchahary (brother). Like other village boys he was admitted to a Bodo medium school located near his house. Later he joint Bijni Bandhab H. S School and passed the 10th board exam in 2009 securing letter marks in Science and Bodo subjects. He completed higher secondary (science) from Bijni College in 2009 securing first division. Due to irregular family income often he had to drop the tuition classes. After 10+2 he had no idea which course to choose and there was nobody who could guide him.
