Creamy layer? really?

The debate on leadership initiated on the blog has really not taken off. I wish there were some young bright officers and also some not so young senior officers expressing their views.
What I had stated earlier in my post was that there are problems but there is no reason to be cynical. There are several people who when they were young were very good subordinates and have now turned out to be very good senior officers. The vice - versa is also true. I did not wish to turn the debate to IPS vs cadre. The reference to IPS was made because the first post on the matter had eulogised them and also many of the junior officers also keep eulogising them. I wish that the officers do come up with real grievances and suggest solutions to them instead of simply making a sweeping statement that all senior officers or all junior officers are bad or not up to the mark.
For a start let us list out the grievances that they have with their seniors. Let us be objective while doing so and also analyse whether the actions of senior officers in addressing those grievances were driven by ill motive against the officer concerned or they had some constraints?
