Addressing a gathering on the 25th convocation ceremony at the Mohanlal Sukhadia University here, Singh said that language and speech from politics to general behaviour was a "matter of concern".
He said that there was a need for universities to consider compulsory additional subject to develop confidence, clean, restrained and polite speech skills in the future generations.
"Humble speech was equally important in the field of employment as it is for social harmony," the governor said.
He said that there was a great need for skill development along with education in the changing times.
In such a scenario, universities must be developed as centers of skill development while maintaining the sanctity of the center of knowledge, Singh added.
