Lorentz proposed a classical model of electron in which it was
assumed the electron to have only `electromagnetic mass'. We modelled
electron as a charged anisotropic perfect fluid sphere admitting
non-static conformal symmetry. We find that the pressure
and density fail to be regular at the origin, but the effective
gravitational mass is regular everywhere and vanishes in the
limit r→0, i.e. it does not have the
problem of singularity. Further, we have matched the interior metric
with the exterior (Reissner-Nordström) metric and determine the
values of the parameters k and r0 (occurring in the
solutions) as functions of mass, charge and radius of the
spherically-symmetric charged object, i.e. electron.
