The correct option is D because all three statements accurately describe what constitutes a “record” as per Section 2(i) of the RTI Act, 2005.

Section 2(i) of the Right to Information Act, 2005 defines “record” very broadly to include various forms of stored information, not just traditional paper documents.

According to Section 2(i), “record” includes: (a) any document, manuscript and file; (b) any microfilm, microfiche and facsimile copy of a document; (c) any reproduction of image or images embodied in such microfilm; and (d) any other material produced by a computer or any other device. This broad definition ensures that information held in modern formats is also accessible under the Act.
