The correct answer is: bronze.
The Vir Chakra is an Indian military decoration awarded for acts of gallantry in the battlefield.
The medal is made of bronze and has the State Emblem of India on the front, with “Vir Chakra” inscribed in Hindi and English on the reverse.
Other options:
Gold gilt – used in some other medals, not Vir Chakra.
Standard silver – used in other decorations, not this one.
So, bronze is the correct answer.

No, it is made up of silver. It is awarded first in 1947.

It is 3rd in precedence in the war time gallantry awards and comes after the PARAM VIR CHAKRA and MAHA VIR CHAKRA.
