No,Many courts has directed that certified copy of Autopsy cannot be issued under RTI and is covered under the exemption of Section 8(1) (j) of RTI Act. If you want a full copy of the pathologist's report, you can request this from the coroner's office, but there may be a fee. In some cases, the report may be sent to a hospital doctor or GP so they can discuss it with you. And if there is any case on it, then after the chargesheet submit to the court by police of that case you can take the certified copy of this case from the court, and there you will get the postmortem report.
