Parties like the BJP say corporate funding, which is a big source of funds for political parties, is drying up this time.

They are not recession proof...but they are the solution to recession... unlike US which has to make huge amounts of official govt spending, indian politicians would make huge amount of unofficial politicial spending

US returns taxes to inject money to come out of recession ===== indian politicians give out cash to voters to vote for them
US bailouts banks ===== indian politicians bail out the poor
US ensures banks are not regulated so that they can fail, and govt can bail them out again ==== indian politicians ensure poor remain poor, so they can bail them out
