Choose the correct word from the given options to fill in the blank :

He behaved in a ____________ manner and refused to give any monetary assistance to the needy family.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Refusing monetary help to the needy shows miserliness. 'Niggardly' means stingy or ungenerous, fitting the context. 'Cowardly' relates to fear, 'melancholic' to sadness, and 'bitterly' is an adverb that cannot modify the noun 'manner' as an adjective here.
