The new structure replaces the 50-year-old Karnataka Bhavan building that was declared unsafe by the New Delhi Municipal Council.
The inauguration ceremony will be attended by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and Union ministers Nirmala Sitharaman, Pralhad Joshi, HD Kumaraswamy, Shobha Karandlaje and V Somanna, the officials said on Monday.
Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, and state ministers HC Mahadevappa and Satish Jarkiholi will also be present.
The 'Kaveri' building features exclusive suites for the state's governor, chief minister, Karnataka High Court chief justice, and other VVIPs.
