Who was the first Wazir under Akbar?

Correct option is D

The first Wazir (chief minister) under Emperor Akbar was Muzaffar Khan. Akbar ascended the throne in 1556, and during the early years of his reign, Muzaffar Khan served as the Wazir. However, his tenure was short-lived due to inefficiency and the dominance of Bairam Khan as regent during Akbar’s minority. After Muzaffar Khan, Akbar restructured his administration and introduced more capable ministers, including his famous Navaratnas (Nine Gems).

The position of Wazir evolved into that of the Diwan-i-Ala (chief minister of finance), and over time, figures like Raja Todar Mal took over specific roles such as revenue administration.
