Yes. Nominee has no right to the deposit unless she is one of the legal heirs. All legal heirs have a right in the deposit.

As a legal heir, of course, you will have the right to claim your share, provided there is no will of your father in favour of your step mother. But, you will have to claim your share only from your step mother. Bank will not entertain your request as against its liability to pay only to your father's nominee.

Agree with expert Mr.Dhingra. At the same time, you can approach the appropriate court and get the court orders to stop payment of deposit to the nominee. I agree with all experts as far as your right is concerned.
