Maken in his report said, Aiyer chose not to operationalise the "apex committee" that was supposed to lord over the OC even after holding three of its meetings, decisions taken by which were duly adhered to.
The Sports Minister also said "facts" behind appointment and continuation of Kalmadi as Chairman of Organising Committee clearly state that he owed his position in the OC "singularly to a favourable clique" of the Sports Minister and Sports Secretary during the NDA regime in 2003.
The documents provided to activist S C Agrawal reveal that Maken said, "in expressing his inability to head the OC through a communication to you, Shri Aiyer displayed gross irresponsibility of a shirker rather than a leader who could take charge and deliver."
Aiyer, in a series of letters to the Prime Minister, had complained about various issues related to Commonwealth Games highlighting that the OC was "squandering" money by appointing consultants with cost of up to USD 5,000 per day and providing a Rs two crore farm house and to Commonwealth Games Federation CEO Mike Hooper during his stay in India.
He had said that unlike the 1982 Asian Games Special Organising Committee which had "powerful public-minded representatives" such as Rajiv Gandhi, the present Organising Committee was "packed with yes men (and a few yes women)".
Aiyer said OC Chairman had "dictatorial powers" as there was "no one of influence to press for an alternative option."
After these letters came into public domain, PM had sought a report from the Sports Ministry about them.
