It is still on your left as you see it. But on your mirror image, if it were a real person, it would be his right hand.
Mirrors reverse left and right, because they are angular directions. Lenses, on the other hand, both reverse and invert.

Why you see your left hand as right hand and right hand as left in the plane mirror?
When you look at your reflection in a mirror, it appears as if your left side is on the right and your right side is on the left because the reflection is a reversed image of reality. This reversal occurs because light rays bounce off the mirror's surface and swap sides in the process. Your brain then interprets this reversed image as you, which is why it seems like your left hand is your right hand and vice versa.
How does the image in a plane mirror differ form the object?
I'm assuming you are referring to a flat mirror. The image in a flat mirror is the reverse of what is casting the reflection. To test this, stand in front of a mirror, and raise your right hand. The image in the mirror will actually be raising it's left hand. If you picture that image turning around to face the same way you're facing (so you're looking at it's back) the raised hand would be on the images left, and in the imagined scenario, on your left.
