I thought this question was trivial and someone could answer it right
away. Is it not possible to do it in emacs?

I can generate an input event, but then I think that event should be
consumed by someone and it should not affect the user experience, so it
may not be rivial.

Or am I using the wrong approach and there is an other mechanism which
is more suitable here than sit-for?
