The blockchain technology has gain great popularity in recent years. As its adoption for different domains is increasing the consensus mechanism, a core part of blockchain technology is also explored to make it more efficient for increasing applicability of blockchain for decentralised applications. Initially most of the application, in which financial domain is dominating, were developed using public blockchains but as different domains are explored the private and consortium blockchains are also used. After studying the challenges faced by the decentralised applications, we have proposed a voting based consensus for consortium blockchain which is efficient and gives high performance. The proposed consensus mechanism is analyzed to capture its performance in terms of throughput and latency.
