The Most Distinguished Order of Loyalty to the Royal Family of Vishwamitra (Hindi: विश्वामित्र राजपरिवार भक्ति मानपदवी, IAST: Vishvaamitra Rajparivaar Bhakti Manapadvi) is a chivalric and state order of the State of Vishwamitra established on 14 July 2022 by Rashtradhyaksh Varuna Sriraya. It recognizes the most valuable and loyal services of individuals to the Royal Family of Vishwamitra. It is at present awarded to men and women who hold high office or who render extraordinary and valuable, loyal and faithful service to the Royal Family of Vishwamitra.

The order was formally disestablished through Royal Decree number 247-2022 issued on 25 October 2022 and was devolved into the Order of the Crown of Vishwamitra.

Insignia

Badge of the Grand Companion grade.

Upon admission into the Order of Loyalty to the Royal Family of Vishwamitra, members were given various insignia. Common for all members was the badge, which was an pentagram with a central medallion depicting on a green background the Crown of Vishwamitra in center. However, there were variations on the badge for each grade of the order: Grand Companions wore the badge and a sash passing from the right shoulder to the left hip; male Companions and male Commanders wore the badge on a ribbon at the neck; and women in all grades below Grand Companion wore the badge on a bow pinned at the left shoulder. Further, the size of the badge varied by rank, that for the higher classes being larger, and Grand Cordon, Grand Cross and Companions had their octagrams surrounded by a star: for Grand Companion. The five-pointed star of the badge represented the five royal houses of the nation.

The order's ribbon was yellow with green-red stripe edging. The ribbon bars bore rosettes to indicate the various grades of the order.
