Hitendra Nath Goswami is currently the Speaker of Assam Legislative Assembly.
He is a member of Bharatiya Janata Party, which he joined on 10 March 2014 in New Delhi.
He was a member of Asom Gana Parishad until 16 February 2013, when he resigned from the party membership "expressing his frustration at the failure of the party leadership to bring in new blood to revive the regional force".
However, he made it clear that he has nothing against the aims and objectives of the regional force and he would always continue his anti-Congress stand.
