MVC Razor View The name ‘model’ does not exist in the current context

Error: 

you have added new area and added controller models and view and when you run your project you face the error :The name ‘model’ does not exist in the current context

Reason :  I hope you have deleted default files added by Visual studio , specially focusing on web.config file .

Now add new web.config file  and copy the below code 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<configuration>

  <configSections>

    <sectionGroup name="system.web.webPages.razor" type="System.Web.WebPages.Razor.Configuration.RazorWebSectionGroup, System.Web.WebPages.Razor, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35">

        Enabling request validation in view pages would cause validation to occur

        after the input has already been processed by the controller. By default

        MVC performs request validation before a controller processes the input.

        To change this behavior apply the ValidateInputAttribute to a

        controller or action.
