We wont get a clean agreement ... this deal is being pushed by the US for its commercial interest and supported by the NSG since this is a back-door into NPT for India. Ofcourse lets not forget that all R&D on thorium as a source of nuclear fuel will die (India has thorium a plenty)!!!!!

You are complete idiot to suggest that India's thorium reactor research will be impacted. Google for "Agreeing to permanent IAEA safeguards is on the basis of permanent fuel supplies: Kakodkar" and read the article in the Hindu newspaper. You'll know what the "father of India's thorium powered plants" has to say on the topic.
