By ranking bureaucrats as " Most Powerful", are we not taking the entire bureaucracy for a ride? I would like to treat them as the "most manipulative, pliable,compromising" who are always eager to please the political class for their career progression.
They have always been holding coveted positions in the GOI by pulling the right strings at right time.
They never seem to retire.They are fit to be addressed as the 'Field Marshals" of bureaucracy,ending up as MPs , Members UPSC, CEC or even Governors.
This way, the mediocrity is perpetuated,the merit takes the back seat. There are examples galore.I would not like to name anyone
