AIZAWAL: An auto-rickshaw driver in Mizoram's Lawngtlai returned Rs 17 lakh to a businessman from Myanmar, who had inadvertently left the sum behind in his vehicle, reports HC Vanlalruata.

Around 9pm Thursday, the businessman had hired Lalhmingmuana's auto-rickshaw for a ride and forgot the cash in a polythene bag. Back at the hotel, panic ensued as the businessman and hotel staff frantically searched the hotel room for the missing money.

Upon discovering it, Lalhmingmuana returned to the hotel to hand over the money, expecting nothing in return. C Zathianga, president of the Lawngtlai Auto Rickshaw Owners' Association, praised Lalhmingmuana for his honesty.
