Correct Answer: covert


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

The reason for this is that the sentence implies that the administration doesn't use obvious or overt tactics, so the antonym would be a word that signifies hidden or not openly displayed, which is covert .

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Apparent means obvious or easily seen.
  • Clear means easily understood or perceived.
  • Patent means obvious or readily visible, often used in the context of intellectual property rights where something is clearly defined or protected by a patent.
