Blast from the past: When John F Kennedy arrested Adolf Lu Hitler in Meghalaya

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 19 March 2024
Election Commission on Tuesday shared a rather funny anecdote from its archive. The headline 'Adolf Lu Hitler arrested by John F Kennedy' in a newspaper instantly ignited nationwide interest due to the unmistakable similarity of the names involved. The unexpected twist? It wasn't the infamous German dictator being nabbed by the late American president's ghost, rather, the arrest of then NCP candidate Adolf Hitler by Superintendent of Police John F Kennedy during the assembly elections in Meghalaya in 2008.
