Hi jagjit saini,

This error may occur because you did not reference System.Web.Optimization at the top of the view.

You can solve this problem by adding a using statement at the top of the view, as follows:

@using System.Web.Optimization

If that cannot be resolved, you may not have referenced the System.Web.Optimization dll in the project. You can add it to the project using the Package Manager console.

PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization

Best Regards,
