The record is broke though.Rajkumari Amrit Kaur, an important political and social activist, was educated in England; upon her return to India in 1919 she met Gandhi but couldn't join in his struggle until her father had died. In 1929 she joined Gandhi as his secretary and worked for him for 17 years. Of noble birth, the Princess helped establish the AIWC in 1927 dedicated to women's empowerment in India, and in 1947 Nehru called her into the first government of India as Minister of Health.The record is issued in England in 1931 and one of the few recordings of Gandhi speaking in English, probably the earliest. It was recorded on October 17th in Kingsley Hall, London, as Gandhi was attending the Second Round Table Conference in London, to get a deal on India's Independence.
