Vir Chakra (VrC)

A battalion of Grenadiers was given the task of clearing an enemy post in the Eastern Sector. The attack was held up by an enemy strong point located in a well-fortified building. Havildar Nand Ram, realising the importance of removing this opposition, in complete disregard for his personal safety, crept forward and destroyed the enemy in the ground floor by a grenade attack. He then rushed to upper storey and dealth with enemy in a similar manner thus overcoming the opposition. This enabled his battalion to advance.

In this action, Havildar Nand Ram displayed commendable courage, initiative and determination.
