Building these stadias in my opinion is not the issue but who will manage these. Can this govt look at how wembley stadium is managed? Let the stadium builders also be tasked with managing these properties. Give them control to manage all govt stadias and have the company go public for investors to also invest in gh properties. Persons like the sports minister, will be required to sit on the board of Governors

Both stadia and stadiums are accepted plurals of stadium. Neither is right or wrong, but stadiums is far more common. This is the case throughout the English-speaking world, and it has been for several decades.
English-speakers are not required to know the rules of Latin grammar, and most Latin-derived words with long histories in English are now pluralized in the English manner. We do still prefer some Latin plurals by convention, however, but stadia is not one of them. Besides, stadia has its own meanings unrelated to stadium (i.e., a telescopic instrument used to measure distances, plus several related definitions), so keeping it separate might be useful.

I humbly object: "stadiums" as plural of "stadium" is not wrong. The usage of stadiums versus stadia is a preference matter, not a grammar or "correctness" issue. "Stadiums" is actually far more common across the English-speaking world, however, "stadia" is also used (especially in Indian-English publications).

Merriam-Webster gives both stadiums and stadia, so it comes to which one of them you prefer.
