We find the Odd days = (nearest leap century year + the nearest century year + completing year) = 2000 + 19 year + year 2020

⇒ In 19 year = 4 leap year & 15 Ordinary year

⇒ 4 leap year = 8 odd days = 1 Odd day

⇒ 15 Ordinary year = 15 Odd days = 1 Odd day

⇒ In 2000 year the od days = 0 Odd day

⇒ Number of Odd days 1st Jan to 1 March = 31 + 29 + 1 = 61 ÷ 7 = 5 Odd days

Addition of all Odd days.

⇒ 0 + 1 + 1 + 5 = 7 Days = 0 Odd day.

0 is the code of Sunday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Sunday".
