The Supreme Court upheld A. Wati Ao's conviction under Section 120-B IPC read with Section 5(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act for conspiracy in awarding contracts to a blacklisted firm at exorbitant rates. The Court found sufficient circumstantial evidence establishing the appellant's guilt and rejected arguments based on delayed proceedings. The Court enhanced the sentence from imprisonment till rising of court to six months imprisonment, rejecting mitigating factors like dependents and job loss as irrelevant considerations for a senior IAS officer.
