Singh and senior leader Sushma Swaraj indicated, after day-long discussion in New Delhi, that solution to the turmoil was not in sight.
Singh appeared irritable when reporters asked him whether Yeddyurappa would continue as chief minister.
"How many times the same question?" he shot back as he got into his car.
When asked about leadership change and whether a solution has been found, Swaraj said: "Talks are on, not reached that stage".
Yeddyurappa sent out contradictory signals while talking to reporters in Bellary, stronghold of state Tourism Minister G. Janardhana Reddy and his elder brother and Revenue Minister G. Karunakara Reddy, who are leading the rebellion against him.
The Reddy brothers are mining barons in Bellary, which is rich in iron ore and is 400 km from Bangalore. Yeddyruappa hoped the crisis would be resolved in a day or two as the BJP leadership was talking to the Reddys.
He blamed assembly Speaker Jagadish Shettar, propped up by the Reddy brothers and supporters as an alternative leader, for the crisis simply because he was not made a minister. Shettar holds Yeddyurappa responsible for depriving him of a political post.
Janardhana Reddy in New Delhi and Karunakara Reddy in Bangalore dismissed talk of the party favouring Yeddyurappa continuing as chief minister.
"It is media creation," Karunakara Reddy said when asked whether there was any change in their stand since Rajnath Singh had said Yedyurappa would 'definitely' continue as the chief minister.
"The central leadership has not given us any such indication," he asserted.
Well Reddys... Great to be son of nation... Phewwwwww
The Reddy brothers are upset that their younger sibling G. Somashekara Reddy, a legislator, has been slapped with a case of kidnapping in mid-October. They want the case to be dropped.
