Linq- Random Item with same key has already been added Error

I am getting error "An item with the same key has already been added." I get this error randomly when many user try to access the same page on site in production at the same time. In the code docid is passed and relevant help is displayed to user. As each user is viewing the same page so same ID is passed for all users. There is no insert operation in this call

Stack trace and souce code of mentioned line is given as follows

public string DocDescription(int docid)
        {
            DocumentRepository _Documentrepository = new DocumentRepository();            
            return _Documentrepository.GetDocDescription(docid);
        }

    }


public string GetDocDescription(int DocID)
        {
            if (DocID != 0)
                return db.sysDocuments.SingleOrDefault(p => p.DocumentID == DocID).Description==null?"No Description Available":db.sysDocuments.SingleOrDefault(p => p.DocumentID == DocID).Description;
            else
                return "No Description Available";
        }

From your code and comments, I get that you store db context in a static variable. This is generally a bad idea when working with entities.

1. DbContext is not thread safe. So, multiple users working with your site will cause such errors in context.

2. The general suggestion for working with context is to prefer short lived context. So just create a new instance, when you need it, and then forget it. For the web sites, it is quite common to use inversion of control container like Unity, Castle.Winsdor etc, and configure it to return one instance per web request for your DbContext. This will give you enough performance, so all entities needed for the current request are cached, and will not cause threading issues at the same time.

See comment too, static members are application scoped variables thus they're sharing the same dictionary which can throw errors like this if multiple requests add the same key.
