Dear Sirs
I am not dis agree with you but it appears that the question is not so simple. I doubt that The information under RTI is not always admissible in evidence. Some time the information under RTI is compilation of data. Such a report is not admissible. Further there are certain rules about admissibility of secondary evidence.
The information under RTI does not fit in criteria of certified copy or secondary as required under Evidence Act. I think the question is still open to be discussed.
