Since there was a Connection time out Problem in the primary server, how can
I make disc space in the secondary server for the replication to continue
from where it stopped. Do I remove waltfiles from the secondary server?

Disc space Breakdown:

4.0K ./backup
12K ./copy
4.9T ./data
204K ./test
16K ./lost+found
361G ./walfiles
5.3T .
