Bodo is a resource scarce, the indigenous language belongs to the Tibeto-Burman family. It is mainly spoken in the north-east region of India. It has both linguistic and cultural significance in the region. Only a limited number of resources and tools are available in this language. This paper presents a study of neural machine translation for the English-Bodo language pair. The system is developed on a relatively small parallel corpus provided by the Low-Resource Indic Language Translation as a part of WMT-2025. The system is evaluated by the WMT-2025 organizers with the evaluation matrices like BLUE, METEOR, ROUGE-L, chrF and TER. The result is not promising but it will help for the further improvement. The result is not encouraging, but it provides a foundation for further improvement.
