Yes — Christ College was founded 1969 by the CMI congregation. UGC granted Autonomy in 2004 and Deemed-to-be-University status in 2008 (notification F. 9-34/2007-U.3(A)). The name was later changed from 'Christ University' to 'CHRIST (Deemed to be University)' per UGC directive. The institution remains the same.
