Left Democratic Front convenor and CPI-M strongman E.P. Jayarajan made a faux pas during an interview he gave about the upcoming football World Cup in Qatar when he repeatedly referred to Argentina great Lionel Messi as Mercy. Soon this became the butt of jokes and went viral. On Wednesday, returning to the public domain after a brief hiatus, he opened up about this goof up.
