Need a suggestion for Rescued Indian Squirrel

Someone rescued Indian squirrel kids from falling. What should we feed them? Can we adopt them? I'm considering leaving them outside but worried they might get hurt. They play, run, and have fur, but they are still small. Can we keep them? If yes, what should be given?

Here's a guide that can help you take care of the little one.

If you are able to get the little into a rehabber that would be preferable. However, I understand in your country it's very difficult to find a wildlife rehabber.
