D Correct answer
Explanation

After 5 years, the year would have been 1997 and there is a leap year (1996). So, the total days after 5 years = 4 * 365 + 366 = 1826. In 2 months, April has 30 days and May has 31 days. Hence, the total days after 5 years 2 months and 16 days are 1903. Upon dividing by 7, remainder is 6. So, the required day is 6 days after Sunday. Thus, the correct answer is Saturday.
