Solution

MainActivity : XML navigate to a new fragment, when on click fab button

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/nav_host_fragment"
        android:name="androidx.navigation.fragment.NavHostFragment"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:defaultNavHost="true"
        app:navGraph="@navigation/mobile_navigation" />

    <com.google.android.material.bottomappbar.BottomAppBar
        android:id="@+id/bottomAppBar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        app:navigationIcon="@drawable/ic_dashboard_svgrepo_com"
        app:navigationContentDescription="Navigation icon"
        />
    <com.google.android.material.floatingactionbutton.FloatingActionButton
        android:id="@+id/floatingActionButton"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:layout_anchor="@id/bottomAppBar"
        android:backgroundTint="@color/colorPrimary"
        style="@style/Widget.App.FloatingActionButton"
        app:srcCompat="@drawable/menu_bug" />

</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

MainActivity : KT

    val navController = findNavController(R.id.nav_host_fragment)
// MainActivity : onCreate
// in my code fab button in the main activity common for all fragment. 
        floatingActionButton.setOnClickListener {
            navController.navigateUp() // to clear previous navigation history
            navController.navigate(R.id.new_issue)
        }

// plz suggest me any better solution on this.
