Correct Answer: Propitious

Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

The word sinister suggests something threatening or evil, like an ominous presence or a feeling of impending harm. On the other hand, the antonym, propitious conveys a sense of favourability and positive conditions.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Ominous means giving the impression that something bad or unpleasant is going to happen.

• Baleful means threatening harm or evil; menacing.

• Foreboding is a sense or feeling that something bad is about to happen.
