The main result of this paper is to solve the following problem posed by \textit{C. P. Boyer} and \textit{K. Galicki } see, Open Problem 7.4 on page 235 in their book; [Sasakian geometry. Oxford: Oxford University Press (2008; Zbl 1155.53002)]: Do there exist simply connected closed \(K\)-contact manifolds with no Sasakian structure? The authors answer this question positively. They prove that such manifolds do exist using the method of fat bundles developed in the framework of symplectic and contact geometry by Sternberg, Weinstein and Lerman.
