Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan will administer oath to the new ministers at Raj Bhavan at 11 a.m, said an official statement Saturday.
Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao met the governor Saturday to convey his decision to expand his ministry - its first expansion of the cabinet after the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) government took power in June.
Rao and 11 ministers had taken oath on June 2.
The TRS chief is likely to induct six ministers as the council of ministers can have a maximum strength of 18.
