Obtain certified copy of original will when it was submitted by your mother, however, she may execute a fresh will consistent to earlier will executed by your father.

Photocopy is secondary evidnece of the original and in the event of destruction or loss of original the photocopy may be relied upon.

You can get back the original Will from the authority concerned. The very words of the Will shall decide the future inheritance/succession.

Usually certified copy is asked by concerned authority.

Obtain certified copy of each document submitted by you thru RTI route.

Request the authority under proper acknowledgment to return the original WILL to you.
