It is projected as anti-Muslim as the agreement is signed with Bush who is an object of hate in the Muslim world. But then he is also an object of hate in all other worlds and even in the US. But the fact is, that he has been good for India. If it weren't for Bush, our outsourcing industry would have closed down by now.
We must understand the NSG was constituted by the Bush Administration as a reaction to Pokhran II. After NSG was in place our uranium supply, spare parts etc were squeezed and this is the principal reason why our nuclear plants are operating at below 50%. If the Pokhran II did not occur, we do not need the deal.
The US controls the NSG and because of this even China needed to enter into a deal with the US. Now the Bush Administration wants to reverse their policy with regard to India. So the deal. Once we receive NSG waiver, we can trade freely with any country in the world and not exclusively with the US
