84-year-old Gogoi had been admitted at Gauhati Medical College Hospital (GMCH) since 2 November and was placed on mechanical ventilation after his condition deteriorated further today.
He was put under invasive ventilation on Saturday night when his condition worsened due to a multi-organ failure.
On 25 October, who was undergoing treatment for post-Covid recovery complications, was discharged from GMCH after two months.
He had tested positive for Covid-19 on 25 August.
The octogenerian Congress leader was being monitored by a team of nine doctors, GMCH Superintendent Abhijit Sarma said.
The doctors attending on Gogoi were in constant touch with a team from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), led by Randip Guleria.
Gogoi was the MLA from the Titabor assembly constituency since 2001. He was also a six-time parliamentarian and a Union minister twice.
