I think a big problem at play in the airlines of India is this... They are using the term cadet pilots..
But they are using this term when refering to people who have self funded their training, type rating etc.
The airline has taken on a LOT of low hours pilots from an unknow system of training that may of been conducted across the globe and a wide variety of training standards.
The end product in no way compares to a cadet pilot that is produced by the likes of BA or Lufthansa, where a young person is selected and trained by the airline to the airlines own system and standards (cost no object, to the individual at least)
This person will then go on to be a very good new first officer within his or her company...
The way things are being conducted in India in such vast numbers is a serious safety risk...
Captjns is very correct that every captain on everyflight should be teaching his/her first officer new skills and helping them along.
But this is not the place for well.. primary flight training to be taking place.
I would say a FO should be able to land on centerline and within the touchdown zone every single time.. Or they should not be operating a line flight with a line captain.
