Hey
Here is your answer
The growth of vegetation depends upon the amount sunlight and rainfall received. The southern slopes of the Himalayas receive more rain due to the south west monsoon winds which travel west along the southern slops. The northern slopes do not receive any such rainfall. So the southern slopes are covered with thick vegetation as compared to the northern slopes.
