In AndroidViewModel extends AndroidViewModel class how can i handle intent data

This is my ViewModel class which extends AndroidViewModel

If i want to add event on viewmodel class using databinding, can i launch intent in viewmodel class?

public class MyViewModel extends AndroidViewModel {
    private BookRepository bookRepository;
    private LiveData<List<Book>> mAllBooks;


    public MyViewModel(@NonNull Application application) {
        super(application);
        this.bookRepository = new BookRepository(application);
        this.mAllBooks = bookRepository.getAllBooks();
    }

    LiveData<List<Book>> getAllBooks() { return mAllBooks; }

    public void insert(Book book) { bookRepository.insert(book); }

    public void update(Book book) { bookRepository.update(book); }
}

Now i'm launch intent events on MainActivity like this

public void clickBtn(){
        Intent intent = new Intent(this, AddActivity.class);
        intent.putExtra("Request", REQUEST_CODE);
        launcher.launch(intent);
}

Are there any better ways to start event or intent related events on ViewModelClass?
