Instead of seeking under RTI you could have applied for the certified copies.

Both ways are open but applying for certified copies are the usual and normal course of practice.

Applying for certified copies is practice. You may get through RTI also.

Authorities under RTI Act are not having the power of Court hence the record of SCDRF cannot be called by it while deciding a matter pending before it.
