You could either change the value of var1 by appending 45 as
Code:
var1="$(date +"%y%m%d)_45"
find /home/New -name "*${var1}" -exec cp -i {} /root/config/ . \;

Or without touching the var1, make changes in the find command.
Code:
find /home/New -type f -name "*${var1}_45" -exec cp -i {} /root/config/ . \;

Specifying the type of file (type -f) yields you more accurate result.
