Consider, 

Monday= 1

Tuesday = 2

Wednsday = 3

Thursday = 4

Friday = 5 

Saturday = 6

Sunday = 7

As 2000 is divisible by 400 the number of odd days is 0.

Number of leap years till 2016 = 4 (2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016)

Number of ordinary years till 2016 = 12

Number of odd days till 2016 = 12 + (4 × 2) = 20 odd days

Number of odd days in January, 2017 = 3

Number of odd days in February, 2017 = 0

Total number of odd days till 8th March 2017 = 20 + 3 + 8 = 31 odd days = 3 odd days

So, the day on 8th March 2017 is Wednesday.
