SSC GD 2018 Question Paper Hindi (11-Mar-2019) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

Destroy

Destroy is correct.

Preserve means to keep something safe from harm or decay and maintain it in its original state.

Its opposite is destroy, which means to damage something so badly that it no longer exists.

Treasure and safeguard are close in meaning to preserve, while descend means to move downward and has no link with keeping or ruining something.
