Born in 1995, Moumita was a bright student from an early age. She completed her SSC from Pabna Government Girls' School in 2009, and then HSC with a golden GPA-5 from Pabna Women's College in 2011.
She went on to study at Jahangirnagar University, where she completed her honours and masters before starting as a lecturer at the Fine Arts Faculty in 2021.
Rumi Khondkar, Moumita's father, shared that after completing her Jahangirnagar University Central Student Union (Jucsu) election duties, she returned to the teacher's quarters around midnight. The next morning, she was called to the vote counting room, but before she could enter, she collapsed at the door. Sadly, she passed away shortly after.
