(i) If the petitioner remits the payment directed in Ext.P3 order of the 2nd respondent on or before 15.3.2015, then the said payment shall be treated as compliance with Ext.P3 order of the 2nd respondent and the 2nd respondent shall proceed to consider and pass orders in the appeal filed by the petitioner before him.
