Just to be clear. When you turn on the A/C, the fan runs continuously without stopping? If this is the case, then that is normal. The fan is required for two reasons. First to keep the vehicle at the proper operating temperature with the increase load of the compressor. Second, the condenser is behind the radiator and requires air to be pushed across it to cool the Freon in the A/C system so that it can blow cold air inside the car.

If this is what is happening then it sounds like everything is normal. Let me know if I am misunderstanding what is happening. Thanks

Yes, thank you for your kind explanation. I thought that fan might stop working one minute after another. Please don't mind and reply final answer.
