Saline water is not useful for washing clothes, drinking purposes and also for agriculture purposes.
Saline water is not useful for drinking as it contains high levels of salts in it.
It cannot be used for agriculture. Irrigation with saline water can result in dangerous levels of salinity building up in the root zones of the crops.
Hence, the correct option is (D).
