After his schooling at Sudarshan Padhi High School, he chose to join N.C. College Jajpur (then affiliated with Utkal University), where he did his B.A. honours, this was followed by a master's degree in Odia language and literature with a specialization in linguistics from Ravenshaw University, Cuttack. During that time, he was the publisher and editor of a monthly magazine, Maheswati, which is published in Jajpur. It was here that he started writing Odia stories and poetry. As a story writer, he owns the first literary award in School period. He did his LLB from Madhusudan Law College, Cuttack.

Prusty followed in his father's footsteps practicing Social Service. During his high school years, he established a library and book bank for rural pupils who were lacking the facilities to purchase books for their studies. To extend the service to a larger number of youth, he established Sangathan Viswabharatiyam and Ganatantrika Grama Samaj. The organization fought for the untouchables and for their social rights. As a volunteer leader of Sangathan Viswa Bharatiyam, he organised relief camps and rehabilitation in the super cyclone-hit areas of coastal Odisha from 31 October 1999 to 10 December 1999. He also participated as a front-line volunteer in the Orissa Disaster Mitigation Mission in Bhubaneswar and organised a relief camp in earthquake-hit areas of Gujarat on 31 January 2001 to 10 February 2001.{{cite news|last1=Maharana|first1=Trailokyanath|title= Gujurat Bhumikampara pratyakshya Anubhuti|publisher=Pragativadi|date=29 July 2001}}{{cite journal|title=Gujurat Bhukampa Prapiditanka Prati Sahayata O Samabedana ODMM ra ek Bibarani|journal=Report of Odisha Disaster Mitigation Mission, Plot No-A/6-444, Nayapalli, Bhubaneswar-16|date=17 April 2001|volume= I|issue= I}}

Prusty's research activities involve document preparation for the classical status of Odia language.{{cite book|last1=Mohanty|first1=Dr. Prasanna Kumar|title=A Report on classical status of Odia Language|date=2013|publisher=Department of Culture, Govt. Of Odisha|chapter=Acknowledgement}} While the common scholarly and intellectual consensus in Odisha was that Odia script, language and literature were not more than 1000 years old, Prusty proved with sufficient evidence that not only are the Odia language and script more than 5000 years old, but Odia literature is also as old as Sanskrit literature.{{cite book|author1=Debi Prasanna Pattanayak|author2=Subrat Kumar Prusty|chapter=Why not Odia? |title=CLASSICAL ODIA|date=2013|publisher=KIIS Foundation, New Delhi|location=D-82, Maitri Vihar, Chandrasekharpur, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 755001|isbn=978-81-925616-3-9|page=XXI, 33|edition=1st}}{{cite journal|last1=Prusty|first1=Subrat Kumar|title=Odia Bhasara Shastriyamanyata: Dabi nuhe Adhikar|journal=Utkal Prasanga|date=March 2014|volume= - LXX|issue= – 8|pages= 79–86|url=http://odisha.gov.in/e-magazine/utkalprasanga/2014/mar/maroriya.htm}}

First time he read the rock painting of the yogimatha{{cite book |last1=Prusty |first1=Subrat Kumar |title=Odia Bhasa Sahitya Parichaya |date=2007 |publisher=A.K. Mishra publishers Pvt.

The script {{Not a typo|Ga}}, and {{Not a typo|o}} ({{Not a typo|tha}}) was discovered in the Yogimatha rock painting. The painting depicted a person with four animals and an alphabet. According to Prusty, the painting had a word like Gaitha (a common Odia word at present, {{Transliteration|or|Gotha}} or 'group' in English). The art closely was related to this alphabet.{{cite book|title=CLASSICL ODIA IN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE|date=2015|publisher=Odisha Sahitya Akademi|location=Sanskruti Bhawan, Bhubaneswar-14, Odisha|isbn=978-81-7586-198-5|page=34}} The alphabet has a similarity to the script of the inscriptions in Dhauli and Jaugada of Ashoka. He assumed it was an ancient form of Indian script and it is the first glimpse of the possible origin of the Odia language and script.{{cite book|last1=Prusty|first1=Subrat Kumar|title=BHASA O JATIYATA|date=2010|publisher=with finical assistance by Dept. of Culture, Govt. of Odisha|location=Bidyadharpur, Jajpur|pages=51–52|edition=1}}

Prusty proved that Kharavel's Hatigumpha inscription (40 B.C.) was the real evidence of past Odia cultural, political, ritual and social status and it is the first poetic stake inscription.{{cite book|title=CLASSICL ODIA IN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE|date=2015|publisher=Odisha Sahitya Akademi {{!}}Government of Odisha|location=Sanskruti Bhawan, Bhubaneswar-14, Odisha|isbn=978-81-7586-198-5|page=94}}{{cite book |last1=Prusty |first1=Subrat Kumar |title=Odia Bhasa Sahitya Parichaya |date=2007 |publisher=A.K.

On the other hand, the Hatigumpha inscriptions show the flexibility of a language in a sweet flow.{{cite book|last1=Prusty|first1=Subrat Kumar|title=BHASA O JATIYATA|date=2010|publisher=with finical assistance by Dept. of Culture, Govt. of Odisha|location=Bidyadharpur, Jajpur|page=22|edition=1}}{{cite book|author1=Debi Prasanna Pattanayak|author2=Subrat Kumar Prusty|title=A Report on classical status of Odia Language|date=2013|publisher=Department of Culture, Govt.

Prusty argued some important points about classical status for the Odia Language. He also proved that Sanskrit as the source of the modern Indo-Aryan languages, Classical Odia is the source language of East India and South-East Asia's language.{{cite book|author1=Debi Prasanna Pattanayak|author2=Subrat Kumar Prusty|title=CLASSICAL ODIA|date=2013|publisher=KIIS Foundation, New Delhi|location=D-82, Maitri Vihar, Chandrasekharpur, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, 755001|isbn=978-81-925616-3-9|page=XXIII|edition=1st}} As Sanskrit is the most conservative and least changed of the Indo-Aryan languages, Odia is the conservative and advance updated languages as well that linguists must understand its nature and development. Unlike the other modern languages of India, Odia meets each of these requirements. It is extremely old (According to L.S.S O' Malley, as old as Latin and Vedic Sanskrit); it arose as an entirely independent tradition, with almost no influence from Sanskrit or other languages; and its ancient literature is indescribably vast and rich.{{cite book|author1=Debi Prasanna Pattanayak|author2=Subrat Kumar Prusty|title=A Report on classical status of Odia Language|date=2013|publisher=Department of Culture, Govt.

After more than five years of deep research work without any help and guidance, Prusty published documentations which led to a political and intellectual movement for awarding Odia the status of a Classical Language.

The Annual National Language Conference on Indian languages is the brainchild of Subrat Prusty. After the recognition of Odia as a classical language, The Conference was organized by the Institute of Odia Studies and Research for two days on 2 and 3 January 2014. The goal was to help create a platform to discuss language issues and support the language movement in preserving the regional heritage and culture.{{cite news |title=Bharata Prathama Bhasa Sammilani udjapita |publisher=The Samaja |date=4 January 2014}} The conference was inaugurated by the Minister of Education Badrinarayana Patra and was attended by more than two hundred scholars of languages, linguistics, and humanities as well as sociologists.
