Try modifying your code to this

public ActionResult General(int id)
    {
        List<Topics>topics = new List<Topics>();
        Topics top = new Topics();
        List<string> items = new List<string>();
        topics = top.getAllTopics(id);
        for (int i = 0;i < topics.Count; i++)
        {
 
            items.Add(topics[i].name);
 
        }
        ViewBag.Items =items;
        ViewBag.Counter= topics.Count; // this line was added
        return View(topics.Count);
    }

And in your View add this if your are using Razor syntax

@for(var i=0;i<ViewBar.Counter;i++){
  //Do your logic here
 
}
