Correct Answer:
C. Pakistani origin
The first Muslim American to serve as a federal judge in U.S. history is Judge Zahid Quraishi. He was nominated by President Joe Biden in 2021 and confirmed by the Senate, making a significant milestone in American judicial history. Judge Quraishi is of Pakistani origin, having been born in New York to immigrant parents from Pakistan. His appointment reflects the increasing diversity within the American judiciary.
- While individuals of Indian origin and Bangladeshi origin have made immense contributions to American society and various fields, the specific individual who holds the distinction of being the first Muslim Federal Judge is of Pakistani descent.
- Therefore, "None of these" is incorrect as a specific origin applies.
