Muhaydin Mire, who is 29 and of Sansom Road, east London, is
due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court.
A 56-year-old man was left with "serious" stab
wounds and another person was injured during the attack at 19:00 GMT.
A man was arrested after being Tasered by police officers. A video of the aftermath of the attack shows a man being pinned
to floor having been Tasered by police, after which an unidentified bystander
is heard shouting: "You ain't no Muslim bruv."
Deputy Chief Constable Adrian Hanstock from British
Transport Police has appealed to anyone with photos or video of the attack at
the Central Line station to contact the force.
"We would like to reassure passengers and people
travelling this morning is that we've increased our staff - they'll see a lot
of police officers across the network, as well as some of our supporting and
complementary teams that provide a more specialist response," he said.
Commuters reported a strong police presence at Victoria
Station on Monday morning, but not at King's Cross. A Transport for London spokesman said there had been no
change in the number of people using the Tube.
