How to get rid of nasality in singing
Whenever I sing I can notice my voice is overly showing nasality and I hate it.I tried to keep my tongue flat rather than bulging to touch the top surface of the mouth. But nothing works exactly as I thought. So, please help me. Is there a surgery to help me? And Can I consult a doctor for this? If so, what type of doctor should I want to consult?
Also, I am thinking of going for a vocal training. How many months would it take to learn all?
I am including my voice here:

Please examine and say. Although, I just sang unprofessionally.

Vocal training will definitely help you. Asking about surgery at this stage is likely to be pointless - get your technique looked at first, then if the vocal coach thinks there is a problem and you need a doctor, follow their guidance.
As far as length of time - there is no answer to this: it is entirely down to the individual.
First, relax. At 14 you are much, much, much to young to be considering any type of surgery. Further, surgery for vocalists is pretty much contained to removing nodules that develop on the vocal chords from improper technique and abuse.
There are several reasons why you sound "nasily":
The music you listen to - your second sound clip featured you singing a Miley Cyrus song, and naturally, you imitate the people you listen to. Miley has fairly poor vocal technique and sings with a nasily, strident tone. If you want to make beautiful sounds you must listen to beautiful sounds.
You are young - at 14 your voice has just begun to develop out of adolescence and it is a process that will take many years before your voice is fully mature. That's just the way our bodies work. Your voice is very young and you should not push it into places it shouldn't go. If you sing and get tired, take a rest, don't force it.
Lack of training - lessons, knowledge, technique, and guidance from an experienced voice teacher (not a "vocal coach") will set you up for success and many years of beautiful singing.
Too tense / Need more air - tenseness causes restriction of airflow and vocal cord resonance. If your vocal cords can't resonate fully (with a good supply of air!) your tone will suffer.
Vocal training (taking lessons) is something that will be on-going and it will take years and years for your voice to develop. In an age where everyone expects everything to be immediate, if it's worth doing, isn't it worth taking the time to do it right?
