The officials informed the CM that the work on the construction of domes and some blocks were under progress. The dome works will be completed in a week or 10 days and the interior works will be taken up thereafter in all blocks in the seven-floor building. Soon after the completion of the works, the R and B department will hand over the building to the GAD (General Administration Department - Political) which will finalize the office rooms to be allotted to the ministers and secretaries. According to R&B Minister V Prashant Reddy, works on vehicle parking zones were in progress and may take some more time to become operational.
