Please change HttpPost to HttpGet

[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(String CityName)
{


}

Because whenever you call the Action, then the GET method will be first called.

As the two actions are in the same controller, you could call the Index method directly from Search like this:

return Index(city);

not necessarily to user the RedirectToAction method.

You are trying to redirect action which is searching for a matching action but in this case there is no get action, so you have to add a get method to accept redirect. If you want, you can check the HTTPGET or POST inside the method

[HttpPost]<---- Remove this 
public ActionResult Index(String CityName)
{


}
