Swaraj, who had initially been unhappy over projection of Modi as prime ministerial candidate, is said to be playing the wait-and-watch game along with Joshi.
Party sources feel that if Advani were to become the Speaker, then these two leaders could be part of Modi's cabinet.
Sources said in case Rajnath is given a ministerial berth, then the reins of the party will be handed over to someone else and the name of Gadkari is doing the rounds.
Today's meetings came close on the heels of a detailed discussions that Modi held with Rajnath Singh, Jaitley and Gadkari in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. The role of Advani and Joshi in the government was also discussed, besides government formation and roping in of more possible allies.
BJP has already made it clear that its doors are open for any party supporting its agenda.
