Masses of hadrons (baryons as well as mesons) are modified in the nuclear medium because of their interactions. In this paper we investigate the effect of in-medium meson masses on the properties of the nuclear matter. The calculations are performed in the Walecka model. We find that with the inclusion of meson mass modification, the computed equation of state becomes softer. We also find that the decrease in the nucleon as well as meson masses in the medium is smaller than that obtained in the case when the in-medium meson masses are not taken into account.
