Solution(By Examveda Team)

In the Himalayas the melting or the snow is more on the Southern slopes. In winter, the sun is always towards the South and the northern facing parts of any mountain are in perpetual shadow. However, in summer, the sun will not migrate as much to the North as it migrated to the South in winter.
