The bridge was constructed over a span of 14 years.
It will be thrown open for public use from Monday onward.
Manish Sisodia has compared the 575-metre bridge to that of the Eiffel Tower as he claimed that people will be able to enjoy a similar panoramic view of Delhi like that in Paris.
Four elevators will operate to take 50 people to the top of the bridge at a time.
The bridge will have a 154-metre-high glass viewing box, which is double the height of Qutub Minar.
