You add water to the container then you stir, the water and salt would form a solution and sand would settle on the bottom of the container. You get another container and place on a filter paper then you pour the water into it, which would lead to the sand staying in the filter paper and the solution, which is made of salt and water, would be left. Finally, you place the container on a source of heat which will cause the water to evaporate and salt staying in the container.
As a first step, you can let the mixture settle and remove the water from the top. This may be adequate for some applications. You can use different sized sieves and or filter papers to get to the next stage of purity. Reverse osmosis is a third technique used. Boiling and condensing the water (distilled water) would be another way.

How do you separate ragi and mustard by threshing?

You usually use a physical property that is different between two materials to separate them out of a mixture. One such difference is that salt dissolves in water while mustard seeds don't, so if you place the mixture in water and dissolve the salt, then filter out the salty water (with, say, a coffee filter), you will be left with just the mustard seeds from the mixture.

What is the process to separate sand and salt mixture?

Since sand is not soluble in water and salt is, you can add water to a mixture of sand and salt, and then pour away the salty water into a different container, leaving behind the sand. If you need to recover the salt as a solid substance, you can boil away the water, or if you are not in a hurry, just let it evaporate.
