The '''Maha Vir Chakra''' ('''MVC''') ({{lit.|Medal for Great Bravery}}) is the second highest military [[Medal|decoration]] in [[India]], after the [[Param Vir Chakra]], and is awarded for acts of conspicuous gallantry in the presence of the enemy, whether on land, at sea or in the air. It replaced the British [[Distinguished Service Order (United Kingdom)|Distinguished Service Order]] (DSO). The medal may be awarded [[Posthumous recognition|posthumously]].

==Appearance==
The medal is made of standard [[silver]] and is circular in shape. [[Paper embossing|Embossed]] on the [[obverse]] is a five pointed [[heraldic]] star with circular center-piece bearing the gilded state [[emblem]] of India in the center. The words "Mahavira Chakra" are embossed in [[Hindi]] and [[English language|English]] on the reverse with two [[Indian lotus|lotus]] flowers in the middle. The decoration is worn on the left [[chest]] with a half-white and half-orange [[ribbon|riband]] about 3.2&nbsp;cm in width, the orange being near the left [[shoulder]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.india9.com/i9show/Mahavir-Chakra-27619.htm |title=Mahavir Chakra in India |publisher=India9.com |date=2005-06-07 |access-date=2013-07-10}}</ref>

==History==
More than 218 acts of bravery and selfless courage have been recognized since the inception of the medal. The most MVCs awarded in a single conflict was in the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1971]], when eleven were given to the [[Indian Air Force]].

==Bar to MVC==
Provision was made for the award of a bar for a second award of the Maha Vir Chakra, the first two being awarded in 1965. To date, there are six known awards of a first bar:
