It is not only barking dogs - the Left and BJP who are opposing the deal.
There is a huge and very powerful lobby - the non-profileration activists - who are lobbying and attacking the deal.
So the government though transparent at times had to take a call on when to make documents public.
But despite it, the bottom-line is whether the text of the agreement is beneficial to the country? The consensus is that it is. The Left and BJP therefore do not attack the text. But rakes up procedural deficiencies like the one you raised.
