After a bit of investigation i found out a way to validate the user. There is an api that is available in Azure Devops: https://dev.azure.com/{ORGANISATION_NAME}/_apis/connectionData.

Need to pass the encoded token in header parameter that results the user authorization. 

{
    "authenticatedUser": {
        "id": "123-13-131231231-123-123-123-123",
        "descriptor": "Microsoft.IdentityModel.Claims.ClaimsIdentity;123-13-131231231-123-123-123-123\\[email protected]",
        "subjectDescriptor": "aad.Masdasdpadspoadsjpaodsjapodj",
        "providerDisplayName": "User Name",
        "isActive": true,
        "properties": {
            "Account": {
                "$type": "System.String",
                "$value": "[email protected]"
            }
        },
        "resourceVersion": 2,
        "metaTypeId": 0
    },
    "authorizedUser": {
        "id": "123-13-131231231-123-123-123-123",
        "descriptor": "Microsoft.IdentityModel.Claims.ClaimsIdentity;123-13-131231231-123-123-123-123\\[email protected]",

            }
        },

    }
}
