The model item passed into the dictionary is of type ?

Question

Hi sir,

I am getting the error "The model item passed into the dictionary is of type but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable". I shared my Model, View and controller for your reference. In that view, i need to display all the records from the database. Kindly give me the solution for this problem.
