Governor Harichandan administered the oath of office to Justice Goswami, who is a native of Assam.
He was an additional judge of the Assam High Court for some time and elevated as its acting CJ before being moved to the Sikkim High Court.
Chief Justice Goswami began his career as an advocate with the Bar Council of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura in 1985.
