Choose the word correctly formed from the root word to fit the sentence: 

The manager objected to the ________ disclosure of confidential records.

This question was previously asked in
UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

unauthorized

The blank requires an adjective derived from the root word "author" that can describe the disclosure of confidential records as lacking proper permission.

"Unauthorized" is formed by adding the prefix "un-" and suffix "-ized" to the root, giving the meaning "without official permission," which correctly fits the sentence describing an improper disclosure.

"Authoring" and "authorize" are verb forms and cannot function as adjectives before the noun "disclosure," while "authorial" relates to an author's style and does not fit the meaning of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is "unauthorized," which correctly completes the sentence.
