    Aromatic compound has continuous cyclic structure with (4n+2) π electrons (Huckels rule), where n = 0,1,2 ...

    Here number of pi electron are 6, where 4 from two double bond and 2 from nitrogen non-bonding electrons, hence it has total 6 pi electrons, therefore

    6 = (4n+2) π

    4 = 4n

    n = 1

    Hence it is an aromatic compound
