Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Records under section 2(i) include physical documents and files as well as material produced by a computer or another device. Microfilm, facsimile copies and reproductions are also expressly covered. A record therefore need not be a certified paper copy or a document specially declared to be a record by the Government.
