      Let \(M_{2n+1}\) be a contact Riemannian manifold with a structure \((\varphi,\xi,\eta,g)\). If the structure vector field \(\xi\) is the Killing vector field, then \(M_{2n+1}\) is called a \(K\)-contact manifold. A \(K\)-contact manifold is Sasakian if \((\nabla_X\varphi)(Y)=g(X,Y)\xi -\eta(Y)X\). In this paper, the authors deal with \(K\)-contact and Sasakian manifolds in which the quasi-conformal curvature tensor \(W\) is conservative, i.e., \(\text{div } W=0\). They show that if \(M_{2n+1}\) is a \(K\)-contact Riemannian manifold, then it is Einstein and \(W(\xi,X)\xi=0\) for every \(X\), and if \(M_{2n+1}\) is a Sasakian manifold, then \(W(\xi,X)Y=0\) for all \(X, Y\) on \(M_{2n+1}\). Also, they show that \(W(X,Y)Z=0\) if \(M_{2n+1}\) is a \(K\)-contact quasi-conformally symmetric Riemannian manifold, i.e., if \(\nabla W=0\).
