Here is my DataContract Class

namespace DataContracts
{

    public class StoryWidget
    {
        public string SportName { get; set; }
        public string imageURL { get; set; }
        public string SportTitle { get; set; }
        public string SeriesTitle { get; set; }
        public string AuthorName { get; set; }
    }
}

Here is my Controller

Controller

public class StoryController : Controller
    {
        //
        // GET: /Story/

        [ChildActionOnly]
        public ActionResult _StoryWidgetPartial(string SName)
        {
            var model = new List<StoryWidget>();
            if (model != null)
            {
                StoryWidget item = new StoryWidget() { SportName = SName, SeriesTitle = "IPL 2013", SportTitle = "ICC Hall" };
                model.Add(item);
            };
            return View(model);
        }
    }

Here is my Partial View :

@model DataContracts.StoryWidget

<div class="nw-img">
                   @*@foreach (var item in Model)
                   {*@
                       <div class="col-6">
                           <a href="#" title="@Model.SportTitle">
                               <img src="images/football_1.jpg" alt="Waqar, Gilchrist indeucted into ICC Hall of Fame"
                                   title="Waqar, Gilchrist indeucted into ICC Hall of Fame" /></a>
                       </div>
                   @*}*@
                   </div>
