All the departments will start functioning from the new secretariat from Sunday.
Soon after the inauguration of the new secretariat, Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao will visit the offices of the key departments and enquire about the facilities provided in the new building constructed at the cost of nearly Rs 600 crore.
