Since you were born in India, lived here for years, and have valid Indian identification documents (Aadhar, voter card), you are an Indian citizen. Your parents' Nepali origin doesn't affect your Indian citizenship. You can confirm this by checking with the local authorities or filing an application with the Ministry of Home Affairs.
