Adhere

The correct answer is "Condemn."

Key Points

• "Adhere' means to stick to something or follow a rule or principle. (मज़बूती से चिपक जाना, जुड़ जाना, संसक्त होना)
  • Example: Make sure that the paper adheres firmly to the wall.
• "Condemn" means to express strong disapproval or criticize something severely. (किसी की तीव्र निंदा करना; दोषी या अपराधी ठहराना)
  • Example: A government spokesman condemned the bombing as a cowardly act of terrorism.
• "Condemn" is the opposite of "adhere" as it implies going against something instead of following it.
• So, the correct answer is Option 4.
