After marathon NSG discussions that spilled over to wee hours today (September 6) in Vienna, diplomats of the 45-member nuclear cartel today approved clean and unconditional waiver for nuclear commerce, a decision that can take the Indo-US nuclear deal forward. Earlier, consensus eluded the NSG for a clean waiver for India with China joining a clutch of countries having strong reservations, however, the US maintained that "significant progress" was made and remained optimistic over securing the crucial exemption. A waiver, which was expected to be a smooth sailing faced a stumbling block towards the end, as four countries had certain reservations.
