The answer should be Wednesday.
Because 1jan 2007 till 1 Jan 2008 have Feb= 1odd day then 2008 is leap year so= 1odd day (since Feb is not included in 2008) so the answer should be Wednesday, right?

Even though 2008 is leap year the extra day will be added after Feb 28 but Jan 1 is before that so we just add 1 day of the given week. As given is monday. The next year same day of the week will be Tuesday (Monday+1).

@All.
The answer is not Wednesday because:.
Even 2008 is a leap year but the period between 2007 Jan 1st and 2008 Jan 1st has only one odd day since 29th Feb is not in the period.

No, It's Tuesday. Because one odd day that you guys are considering in 2008 being leap year will be originated when the question was asked after February because that will add one more day in February. Since Question asked for January than there is no concept of Leap Year.
Hope, now it will be cleared.
