I have been following the instructions provided by this
link. It seems that this instructions are for Fedora OS. After searching a bit I have found out this
link which provided the instructions for Ubuntu OS. After following these I was able to create the container successfully. When I ran the command
sudo lxc-start -n left /bin/bash
I did not get a terminal within the container. After that I have run the command
sudo lxc-start -n left /bin/bash
This has given me something like this

Connected to tty 1
Type <Ctrl+a q> to exit the console, <Ctrl+a Ctrl+a> to enter Ctrl+a itself

This hasn't given me a working console.
If someone has found a workaround for this issue, please provide them.
Thanks in advance
