It is located at Greenlands Road, Punjagutta, Hyderabad in Telangana. It was built in 2016 under the chief ministership of K. Chandrashekar Rao. It was designed by the Indian architect, N.

Chief Minister's Camp Office, used as residence cum camp office of Chief minister from 2005, was considered inauspicious by K. Chandrashekar Rao, when he became chief minister in 2014. He conceived the idea of a new complex adjacent to the camp office to help perform his duties without interruption. 10 IAS Officers quarters and 24 peon quarters at officers’ colony were demolished to construct the new complex. The residential area of camp office is now used as the state guest house and the office area is now the Office of Inspector General (intelligence).

The original official name was Pragathi Bhavan which means "Progress building". The Gruhapravesam (housewarming) was performed on 23 November 2016 at 5.22 AM by the Chief Minister of Telangana, K. Chandrashekar Rao, with traditional rituals performed by Chinna Jeeyar Swamy.
